Simple questions like this probably should be in the new user group.
But as to your problem, POV's CSG should do the trick.

3.4.5.4 Constructive Solid Geometry in the documention should help.

I really hate to tell you more. Part of the fun I have with POV when I first
started was trying to figure these things out. Once you learn something you can
add to it to make somethings else. Of course a few hints along the way can't
hurt!

Look at 3.4.7.1.22 Radial Pattern for ideas of how to get the colors you need.

Have Fun!
