ROYGBIV
Red red roses with velvet petals brought to a lover with fiery burning passion
Orange hues are slightly less fiery... the heat is on its way out and crisp leaves crunch under foot
Yellow is so soft, like warm sunshine or a fuzzy chickadee against your cheek
Green is the scent of cut grass
Blue, the scent of ocean, the taste of salt
Indigo like a deep chill, cold as ice
Violet, oh violet... how to describe thee. I suppose there's no better way than to breathe in the scent of the lovely purple flowers by that name. Inhale a handful of blueberries and then taste them. That is violet.
To feel and smell and taste colors is the very best way to experience them!
