A Rainbow To The Blind

by Baby Rainbow   Dec 24, 2012


Red is for the love in which my heart feels with every beat.

Orange is for the vibrant warmth that surrounds my soul each day.

Yellow is for the sunshine that lights up the darkest days with happiness.

Green is for the fresh cut grass which I can smell during summer months.

Blue is for your tears that I wipe dry with my comforting touch.

Indigo is for that middle place between your happiness and your fears.

And violet is for the hope in life which you have planted inside of me.

I may not be able to see what you do
but oh what a beautiful sight.

    I really liked your perception on indigo too, this is one of my favorite colors and I think it's really poetic as well! But the "middle place between your happiness and your fears", really interesting and thoughtful, like how you see life, choosing a ground in which you can stand on and be at peace. I also liked how you ended with hope, with that reminder. Wonderful write and I love the emotion in which you have portrayed too, color can be easily overlook but what would we miss if we know it then it disappeared from us? If we were blind, what would the colors mean to us?

    Great write! :]

    I was surprised Saffie, each colors designates a meaning and reflections suggesting of your favorite panorama, all colours are carefully arranged remembering me of V-I-B-G-Y-O-R when i was in elementary, i failed the subject for rumbling the colors=)
