    Orange is my favorite color. I think that is why I love fall and Halloween so much. I also love the smell and sound of fall. The crunch of the leaves as I walk and the smell of the crisp air. LOVE IT!!!

    I couldn't think of anything other than candy-corns lol. I like this lil' poem though.

    What is Orange?

    Orange is a tiger lily,
    A carrot,
    A feather from
    A parrot,
    A flame,
    The wildest color you can name.
    Saying good-bye
    In a sunset that
    Shocks the sky .
    Orange is brave
    Orange is bold
    It's bittersweet
    And marigold.
    Orange is zip
    Orange is dash
    The brightest stripe
    In a Roman sash.
    Orange is an orange
    Also a mango.
    Orange is the music
    Of the tango.
    Orange is the fur
    Of the fiery fox,
    The brightest crayon
    In the box.
    And in the fall
    When the leaves are tuming
    Orange is the smell
    Of a bonfire burning.

    I like your list, but make mine a burnt orange University of Texas sweatshirt--whenever we get cool enough temperatures to even think about sweatshirts!

    I have an orange fleece sweater that is loud and warm and I absolutely love it. Unfortunately it's too warm here in Pittsburgh right now. Hopefully we'll get a chill in the last few weeks of October so I can wear my orange with pride.
