Describe a flower garden, but do not use any color adjectives (i.e., don't use descriptive words like red, yellow, green). Ideas: Tell me how your body senses the garden? How does red feel? What is yellow? Imagine how it would feel to step into a flower garden without eyesight, then explain it to me. Get visceral...describe the scene either directly or indirectly. Be creative. :) Or go totally metaphorical with it. Think outside the box. Oh, and make it a micro-poem, too. Have fun!

Until Summer

Beyond the shade of graceful pines,

within stone walls of old design,

flower beds, dormant still,

deny demands that purpose fill.

When Spring- no, Summer! comes,

breathing grass and blossoms,

yearning fades to perfumed joy and petal days,

while fragrant vines, enchanted, climb

upon the trellis of a gardener's mind.
