Life is a worthless blank sheet of paper,
Because green has given me development,
Red gives me enthusiasm,
Huang taught me loyalty,
Blue taught me to be noble,
Pink gives me hope,
Gray makes me sad,
And then finish this color picture,
Black will kill me.
Since then,
I love my life,
Because I like his color.
1. Theme: Color, the philosophical poem of the richest man.

There are twenty rows of stagnant water, and each row consists of four steps (three two-character feet and one three-character foot). Each line of the three-character foot is flexible, but each line ends with the two-character foot, which makes the pace consistent. Every section has rhyme, rhymes from line to line, rhymes from section to section. Therefore, there is both a sense of rhythm and a sense of rhythm, and the rhythm is ups and downs, and there is an aesthetic feeling of hearing. Color: There is also musical beauty.
