13 Origami Swans

Each unique in their own way
all different shades,
all different patterns,
strung together on one line.

Five blue swans
floating high above
colors of the sea, the night sky,
a glass of shimmering water.

Four pink swans
cascading through the air
with patterns of spring flowers,
squares, puffy clouds

Three yellow swans
inhabiting the entirety of the line
a deep dark mustard, a bright yellow sun,
a pale light shade.

There are no colors with a pair
only one purple swan
starving for attention,
striving to be noticed,
the most unique of all.
