MY TAKE IN CINQUAIN FORMAT
color
me red, it said
root screams for attention
ignore me at your own peril
I hold…
orange
is the sacral
corrects relationships
signs of trouble will first show here
I warn
yellow
is vital for
your overall wellness
nutrition is key to your health
Take care
green heart
full conviction
unstruck, unbeaten sound
heart chakra enables hearing
-Magic
sky blue
enliven now
your suppressed voice and throat
who told you blues are depression
-cheer up
seeing
with your third eye
psychic, spiritual
indigo power be yours – live
again
royal
violet crown
thousand petals infuse
consciousness -vision unites with
Supreme

Much love,
