My daughter tells me she thinks in colour. She wrote this piece based on the Artemis Fowl books (of which she is a huge fan). Even without having read the books, you get the sense of what the characters are like. Enjoy!
Artemis
The colour of clouds
After a sunset.
Purple.
Cool indigo.
Shot with silver arrows.
Metallic.
Edgy. Aware.
Tinged with coldest blue.
Holly
Red hazel.
Stripes of turquoise.
Swirling.
Always moving.
Shifting emotions.
Tears.
Laughter.
Confusion.
Unspoken pain.
A kaleidoscope.
Courage.
Trouble
Golden brown.
The colour of sunlight
Striking polished wood.
Safe.
Steadfast.
A shelter.
A tree in violent storm.
Kind.
Julius
Navy blue.
Bright red.
Lightest pink.
A pattern of octagons.
Moving in procession.
What lies under the mask
Of cutting words,
And ferocious anger?
A tear drop,
Lightest pink.
