Erotic blue lust sparks white-hot volts of tingling silver thoughts into the mind of sexual fantasy Climbing fiery red heights of painted passion Exploding mosaics coloring me in a thousand different pieces of rainbow sensations Falling aimlessly into aquamarine pools of tranquility Cooling jets Until mellow-yellow my mood Copyright © 2020 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Grace is hosting D'Verse poets tonight and has prompted us as follows:
The writing challenge: Today we will write about color from the perspective of a synesthete. Pick one color or several colors. Create your own Dictionary of Color. All sounds have color. The alphabet has color. Days of the week have color. Each day has a color and a certain shape.

Craggy rocks veiled with gauzy mist Morning air chilling in it’s mystery Dramatic colors unfolding with the hours passing Greys turning to blues as the sun rises with it’s warmth Changing the landscape in its ever-moving cycle of light following dark Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing © in response to Sue Vincent’s Weekly Write/Photo
The bruised sky
patterned with purple
and blue
slowly fading
into golden ochres
signaling an
end to darkness
With the new dawn
a brightness and
healing
Erasing night’s
shadows
as day
becomes starless
Panoramic
spectacle of
pigments and hues
An ethereal display
of ever-changing
evocative colors
Impossible to harness

weekly Write/Photo challenge
The sky awash
with hues of cerulean,
turquoise and indigo
Reflecting my
ever changing moods
Bright and expectant
falling silent
with deep thoughts
Followed by stillness
as the blues turn darker
Subtle changes
in colors
Collaborating
Sweeping the expanse
Carrying my musings
to another dimension

Colors in the sky
Changing as the sun goes down
Pink and blue to grey

Summer fades into history
yet one more time
as leaves desiccate
and fall to the ground
Carpeting the earth
with resplendent remains
while heralding in a new
season to be crowned
A changing kaleidoscope
Delighting our senses
with colors rich and golden
Dead, but alive, in all its splendor
The fragrance of pines
and wood smoke in the air
Give thanks for the season
and for all it does render

As the colors change
and there is a chill in the air
Autumn has arrived

One brushstroke of blood-orange
sweeping across the dark grey canvas
Silvery clouds framing, illustrating
the dramatic landscape
As the day comes to rest
the sky releases its final colors
in a spectacular explosion
and the view begins to reshape
