How Would You Explain It

Author's Note:
This is from the quote on Mr. Johnson's old wall, "How do you explain color to someone who can only see in black and white?"

You can see rainbows
And sunshine and bees
But how would you explain
Color to me?

You can see paintings
And drawings and trees
But how would you explain
Color to me?

You can see styles
And movements and seas
But how would you explain
Color to me?

You can see oranges
Red, yellow and greens
But how would you explain
Color to me?

You can see life
And all that we find
But how would you explain it
To someone who's blind?
