It appears to be a tinted list - orange, silver, olive, almond, iron - even without purple no matter how you paint it. There's some penguin - black & whilte - to it.
Nice to have you back papageno - We missed you when you were papagone!

My friend Mr. Goines brought up an interesting point about rhyme.
Such a small list leads to the question Why do most words rhyme? One answer: because it is easier to remember a story when it's written in verse. Reciting an epic poem, or the history of your village is easier when you know every other line will end in a predictable way. Most words rhyme on purpose, as memory aids.
Why are so many non-rhymers color words? I don't know, but that question interests me. Thanks papageno.
