Colour my soul...beyondbee… is a whole new world

Colour my soul

I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of synaesthesia (the linking of senses, e.g. hearing music when looking at paintings). I can only think it would bring about a greater understanding of your art, whatever it is. In that vein I wrote this poem, after seeing this week’s prompt over at Poetry Thursday.

A soft strumming
Pricking through the dark
Spreading brightness
As the music swells

Voices in chorus
Like brush strokes
A rainbow of sound
Filling the air around me

Words washing over
Wrapping me in blue
Surround my heart
In soft comfort

Then slowly a warmth
Churning like red blood
Racing through my veins
Your song is in my soul

Right now I am feeling kinda contented...

What I do:
Been there:
Tidbits:
- National Study Group on Chronic Disorganization
  Some useful resources on this site to help diagnose, identify and deal with chronic disorganization in yourself or those close to you. Maybe they will soon give it an official psychiatric designation.
- Uncyclopedia
  Spoof Wikipedia-style encyclopaedia where nothing is true. Fascinating, isn’t it?
- Cool Periodic Table
  This would have made studying chemistry so much easier. The animations and colours really help reveal the relationships of all the elements.
- Obsolete Skills
  While some skills have long become something for the reminiscent, like changing a fountain nib perhaps or operating an a-track player, some of the skills on this list seem like they were useful “just yesterday” - remember rabbit ears antennae?
- Visual Nutrition Info
  To aid in improving your nutritional habits, Foodsel provides visual comparisons of the content of common foods (hard to swallow when you see the whole stick of butter). It also shows how much exercise is needed to burn off items. Turns out I need to walk upstairs for 24 minutes to burn off my breakfast of Honey Bunches of Oats cereal.
- You’re studying what?
  If you have some strange desire to go learn about, let’s say, cultural anthropology or robotics, you can find a course here. These universities all provide free course material, some more in depth than others, but wonderful resources for those of us who love to learn.
- ebooks
  If you are somebody that finds it hard to walk out of a bookstore without a stack of books, your arms may be able to get some relief. If you can adjust to reading your books on screen, this site has just about any recent book you might find in a bookstore, in all sorts of subject areas. A good resource for when you must have it now.
- The Bible According To Google Earth
  If Google Earth had existed back then, this is how some of the major events in the Bible might have looked. Check out Noah’s Ark and the Parting of the Red Sea.
- Visualizing bible relationships
  For anyone who ever got confused trying to think through the complicated family relationships in the Bible, this page has some interesting visual representations. Now you know it really is as confusing as it seemed.
- Overheard Lines
  This blog lists various things actual people were overheard actually saying somewhere. It is pretty funny, weird, strange,enlightening, disturbing…
