Color is seen
Color is heard
Color expresses
Without mere sound or spoken word.
Red and blue
Black and white
Yellow and purple
Magenta and spice.
Colors on walls
On signs and in lights.
Colors on textiles
On the packaging of basic necessities in life.
Looking around
Peering here and there
The hues that surround
Impact the experience there.
Some things stand out
Are made to feel grand and bold.
Some things blend in
Softly muted, tenderly told.
Walking the path
Taking in what is seen
Observing the essence
Of the life and world around the.
How is color used?
How is color seen?
What is color’s purpose
The intention behind its presence in the scene?
These days as I walk
These days as I see
Of colors and their placement
I am aware, intentionally.
Color tells stories
Its saturation
Its fade.
Color tells stories
About life
An avenue for an experience to be portrayed.
As I live in this world
As I take in what I see
How can I further understand
The stories behind the colors around me?
