RED

Red can be dangerous or so I'm told 
Red for lovers is more precious than gold 
British phone boxes and post boxes are also red 
Not that there is any left it has to be said 

Should a traffic light show red you must stop 
Seeing red at a football match belongs to the Kop 
Arsenal and Manchester United play in red too 
I can never imagine these teams wearing blue 

For the artists among you seeing a red sky 
Is something to behold and wonder why 
If you are peckish and want something to eat 
Try some strawberries and some red meat 

The colour red stands out in so many ways 
It is vibrant and lights up the dullest of days
