Pink and Yellow

I have two dogs,

Pink, and Yellow;

I take them for walks in the rain;

they wear hi-visibility jackets,

so they can be seen,

is that plain?

Pink wears a yellow coat,

and Yellow wears a pink;

which is the simplest way to dress them,

well, that is what I think.

“But…” you say,

“… if Pink wore pink,

and Yellow, yellow,

wouldn’t that be better?”

“No…” I respond,

“That idea wouldn’t work,

you adle-pated fellow;

Yellow’s coat is too big for Pink,

and Pink’s is too small for Yellow.”
