Hailstones and Halibut Bones

A wonderful poetry book for visual imagery.  Check out these descriptions of colors using commonly seen objects.

Blue is a heron, a sapphire ring,
You can smell blue in many a thing:
Gentian and larkspur, Forget-me-nots, too.
And if you listen, you can hear blue
In wind over water.... 

Ideas for writing, art, imagery and more are numerous. First published over 25 years ago, the book is still a classic for the visually impaired, as well as all of us!
