Colors for a blind person

[Transcription

Tweet: I was wondering how you could describe colour to a blind person and after doing some research, I found these answers and it’s so fascinating.

Poem:

Red

They had me stand outside in the sun.They told me that the heat I was feeling is red. They explained that red is the colour of a burn, from heat, embarrassment, or even anger.

Blue

They put my hands in their pool They told me that the sensation I felt while swimming, that omnipresent coolness, that’s blue. Blue feels like relaxation.

Green

I held soft leaves and wet grass. They told me green felt like life. To this day it is still very much my favourite colour.
