Have you tried that code? It will print:
grass = greengreen = apple = redred = sky = blueblue =
%hash in a list context will return a list ('sky', 'blue', 'grass',
'green',
'apple', 'red') but only 'sky', 'grass' and 'apple' are the keys. It
should
be something like:
print "$_ is $hash{$_}\n" for keys %hash;
or better, use each %hash (unless you want a sorted order, and if you do
use for sort keys %hash).

It does have key->value pattern, like every hash.
my %hash = qw(sky blue grass green apple red);
means the same as:
my %hash = (sky=>'blue', grass=>'green', apple=>'red');
