I asked the little boy who could not see



I asked the little boy who cannot see,
“And what is colour like?”
“Why red,” he said
“Is like the warm fire that my mum puts on in the afternoon,  
Blue is the water that evaporates into my mouth in the morning ,as I brush my teeth in the morning.
Yellow is like pineapple, as it runs down my throat in a juicy sensation.
Green is the sound of a bat made out of wind.
White is like the sound of rustling paper in the the background as I work.
Turquoise is like the sound of the ocean as it crashes against the rocks
And purple is the smell of the flowers in the back yard”
