The Sounds of Colours

Thunderous is the sound of Black darkening the sky and booming with a loud crack Soothing is the sound of Green leaves dancing in the breeze and making one feel serene Loud is the sound of Red blood streaming from someone screaming off her head Silence is the sound of Blue in a clear sunny sky which is very tranquillizing too Crunchy is the sound of White icy snow lying on the ground creating a beautiful sight Mellow is the sound of Yellow leaves sighing in the breeze while falling to the earth below Babbling is the sound of Colourless water flowing in a rippling brook on a ground filled with bumpiness Boisterous is the sound of Crimson rage from an angry mob who pay no heed to reason Whispering is the sound of Pink flushed skin of sensuality with an aphrodisiac drink Pompous is the sound of Purple representing royalty and other aristocratic people

Thank you, Dr Mehta, for your appreciation of "The Sounds of Colours". I enjoyed the exercise of feeling and listening to the sounds of these colours, while composing the piece.

The contest for which I wrote this piece was advertised for the sounds of COLOURS (implying more than one) but the sponsor changed it to the sound of a single colour afterwards so I could not submit it. So, in that sense, it is a missed poem. I am submitting it for your missed poem contest.

I'm glad you enjoyed this poem, Dr Mehta. I did not miss the contest. As I explained, I could not submit this because of the change made by the sponsor.
