Color of Life

What color is cold?
  Is it the blue-grey of ice?
  Is it the white of snow?
  Is it clear like an icicle?
  Is it grey like a winter lake?
What color is pain?
  Is it the maroon-red of blood?
  Is it the black in the corners of your vision?
  Is it the blue like the streaming tears?
  Is it white from the impact of a fall?
What color is sorrow?
  Is it the see-through tears?
  Is it the black emptiness?
  Is it the red like a raging fire?
  Is it grey like the dullness of joy?
What is the color of joy?
  Is it the yellow of the sun?
  Is it the blue of the water?
  Is it the white of a smile?
  Is it the orange of a sunset?
What color is love?
  Is it the deep red of a heart?
  Is it the brown of your mother's old jacket?
  Is it the light grey arrow through your heart?
  Is it yellow like the joy you feel?
What color is life?
  Is it blue, red, white, grey, yellow, green,ect.
  Life has a color
  Most are blinded by their minds and cannot see it.
 I can.
Can you?
