The color mahogany is a reddish brown color, but it is more associated with being a shade of red. “Rose” and “pink” have already been previously mentioned in the poem, and will continue to be mentioned. Red is a fiery color that is meant to imply passion, making "Sacred Emily" is a poem that, in part, deals with passion and desire.
