What Color is Sadness?
Rage is red. We all know that to be the case. Just blinding, roiling, boiling, red rage. Simple yet messy. Like a spaghetti-sauce pot exploding in the kitchen. Emotional overthrow.
Pow!
Envy? too easy... green. Sickly bordering on putrescent... deep, dark, dank, and green.
Yuck.
Happiness you say? Again, your questions... they are not so hard. Happiness is the color of the sun in children's books. Happiness is bright, it's shiny, it's beaming, radiant, vibrant yellow can be seen for miles! Like a beacon in the night, happiness shines for everyone to see. Brilliant!
What if I feel fright? You can remember this one because it rhymes. Fright is white. Pale, like a ghost. Snow white, shivering in the cold, shaking of the fright.
Boo!
Ah, but sadness... What color would this be? Not orange, certainly no. Orange is not a color for sadness. We will come to orange in it's time. Sadness you'll know because we've all had them a time or two... the blues. Strangely this the favorite color of most people. Blue though. Dark, cloudy, sad-trumpet-noise, frowny-face blue. From the light color of the sky blue... To the dark, rich, unfathomable, ocean deep, tragical blue.
Blah.
Purple! Pride! You are proud. You are his majesty the mighty! Replete with his ermine robe, and golden chalice reeking of wine, both of which... are rich... royal, proud purple.
The End.
