The prompt for this month’s Indie Poetry Please invites you to explore colour in poetry.
What colours inspire you? How do they shape your world?
Use this prompt to infuse your verse with vibrancy, contrast, or subtlety—looking forward to reading how your words paint a scene and express memories and moods in every tone, shades and hue.
Any form and limited only by the length of an Instagram comment (2200 characters)
