if jazz is blue, then
blues play cerulean
rock & roll thumps a
loudly violent violet
rap taps bold blood,
so immodestly garnet
country music waxes
into mellow marigold
gospel soothes with its
rich emerald harmony
while classical sounds
notably black & white
Synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon in which stimulation of one sense leads to automatic, involuntary experiences of a second one. Seeing music as colors is one form of synesthesia. (recent prompt by Grace at dVerse poets)

Each music has its own color… and probably different hues for each of us.
