Have you ever smelled a colour?

It's as easy as can be

Just pick one out and sniff one

Close your eyes and you will see

Just think of what you're smelling

Be it orange, red or green

But, you have to keep your eyes closed

To experience the scene

Just try it...it's amazing

Pick a colour, take a sniff

It opens all your senses

All you do is take a whiff

Just close your eyes and do it

There....you'll find it in your mind

You will surely be excited

By the pictures you will find

Green will bring you gardens

Overflowing with their scent

It will bring back thoughts of camping

Setting up that ratty tent

Red...fruit and anger

Cherries freshly picked and cooked

It will also show emotions

Try again...I know you're hooked

Try and smell a colour

Smell blue and see the sea

Just close your eyes and sniff them

Then you'll see the things I see

Each sense has got a trigger

You may think I'm off my gourd

But...try and truly smell a colour

Close your eyes and come on board...
