Rainbow in my dreams

colors...to feel!

Grasses are green.
GREEN.
Soft and mischievous.
And oh so full of life!

 

Roses are red.
Roses smell so good.
Tender touch of their petals...
Soft and erotic.
RED.
Strong and dominating.

 

BLUE.
The sky is blue.
The water is blue.
Blue is the color of my eye.
Blue.
Honest and liberal.

When the sun shines and the rain falls,
The Rainbow adorns the sky.
My granny told me.
The rainbow has all colors.

 

Do I dream of the rainbow?
Can I FEEL the rainbow?
Will the rainbow caress my skin?

 

I whispered to the wind,
To carry my message to the rainbow.
To come down to me
And kiss my cheek.
'cause I need to feel its touch,
'cause I need to inhale its fragrance!

 

I need to feel the blue.
I need to feel the red.
I need to feel the green.

 

'Cause there is only one color
that my blue eyes let in.
BLACK.

 

BLACK
Stubborn and unforgiving.

My granny told me.

Innocence is not lost in you and it comes through. It brings a smile and takes you on a nostalgic trip.

"'Cause there is only one color
that my blue eyes let in.
BLACK.


BLACK
Stubborn and unforgiving."

Now, that's heavy stuff. You started the poem with simple words and thoughts and ended with a bang. Disturbingly true. Hat's off for these lines.

Cheers!

wow you are very good. This piece put some beautiful images into my head, and it's an all around good piece.

I like the pictures that you create to describe each color.
But most of all, I like how you present the ending in BLACK because of the way you relate stubborn and unforgiving to the darkness in life. Also because I can relate to this emotion.

There is however a sense of optimism all through...the reader gets the feeling that this character is willing to let the color back into her life.

Great write.

maybe kind of a sensitive issue....but was trying to think what a visually impaired person might feel about "colors"
