Color

Haikus

ginger peach is warm
the color of a sunset
smooth, fuzzy, and bright

honey nut maple
crunchy like the golden leaves
burned like a candle

autumn harvest moon
pumpkins and thanksgiving time
color of a squash pie

My thoughts on color...

Colors are more than just what you literally see with your two eyes. There can be deep stories behind a color, your own personal significance to it, and when you look back at the color it takes you back. I personally love all the colors in nature. Purple flowers, green grass and trees, blue skies, orange sunsets, white clouds, and turquoise waters. Color is all around us, you just have to stop and look sometimes. Take in the beauty of color that God created. For me, light blue is a significant color to me. It reminds me of my room at the house I grew up in. It was the color I chose after getting tired of my "pink princess" room. It marked a transition in my childhood of growing up, I was no longer playing with dolls or playing dress-up, I was doing homework and playing sports. Thus, I chose a light blue that was peaceful, calming, and grown up.
