Day 25 Prompt: Red

When I was growing up I extremely disliked the color red, not sure if the fact I had red hair had anything to do with it or not. It wasn't until a few years back that I started to enjoy red and now I love it. I completely embrace red! How about you? Love it? Hate it? Don't feel anything about it?

I have always enjoyed big red barns though, I think it is because my great grandparents lived/owned/worked on their ranch with a big red barn and farmhouse. I loved having family gatherings out there.

Here are a couple of other things that I love that are red;

Possibilities:

Free write for ten minutes about the color red and see what comes up for you. Childhood memories or...?

Suggested poetry type: Harrisham Rhyme

Word Prompts:

dark

tantalizing

sensations

tempting

taste-buds

(Okay so those words are some of my feelings around red, you can choose those or make up your own.)

Happy Writing!
