Be Still

Here is the task I present to anyone who reads this blog:

Close your eyes and try to imagine you have never seen color before. Touch an object to you, really touch it. Try to label the color without discrimination or without the gift of knowing what we "label" it to be.

Tonight I lay in the back yard shoeless (go figure) and closed my eyes cuz there were no stars to wonder in and tried to imagine if I were to describr green to someone who never saw green, how would I do it.

The only way I could do it is to say green in delicately full of life, soft with thin edges sharp and wet.

It seemed so inadequate a definition in my own thought so I thought I would put it out here in the "blogosphere" to see if anyone could choose a color and describe to me how they see any color.

happy imaginations and cannot wait to hear/read your interpretations of your color(s).
