A Different Kind of Hue

Once there were two dragonesses who were believed to be white,
Even though everyone else was red or blue, these two were a different hue.
Everyone thought there was something obviously not right,
And the other hatchlings made sure that they knew.

The hatchlings would laugh and point, complaining through their mutter.
Even though the two were just fine.
The elders and their parents told them they’d get better,
But to them, they only felt tangled with twine.

They were told, “One-day they’d meet a blue and be mated”.
The two never stopped anyone to tell them this,
That the thought of blue made them agitated.
Confused to why that’s what they have to end up with.

Perhaps they were just made different,
That the gods made a mistake.
Luckily with the years, they grew independent,
Other’s cruel judgment no longer had a take.

Together they found their own red,
Feelings that would not allow each other to think.
The strength of those feelings they thought each other would dread,
But even to this day, they make a beautiful shade of pink.

After all to those who think it’s just red and blue,
Open your views and meet a new kind of hue.
