Challenge
Okay Prosers, this challenge is very close to my heart. I was talking to one of my dear friends the other day who is blind. She never complains about it and is always laughing and a ray of sunshine but on this day she confessed that she was feeling down. "It's just darkness all the time," she said. Said it twice. Her words cut me to the core. I wanted to say something, anything by way of empathy, but mostly I wanted to paint her sight back somehow. Calling all painters, poets, and word magician

What does it look like?
Red looks like the way your skin heats up when you sit next to the fire, eventually becoming overwhelming.
Yellow is how the sand between your toes fills in the space and lets you sink with each step.
Blue is soft, like a zillion thread-count sheets.
Green is like dew-water leaving tiny lines on your calves, and smells like wildflowers.
Purple is sweet like sugarplums. Its more of a sensation for the tongue than the body.
White is that feeling of peace. When your brain is blank and everything stops moving and you feel nothing but zen.
