Russet
What color is Russet?
Russet is a color that I know
It's a dark brown with a reddish glow
It's a mix of orange and purple hues
Or a blend of orange and brown too
It's a color of the autumn leaves
And the coarse cloth that poor people wear
It's a color of the russet apple
And the russet potato that's rare
