Grace is today’s host for dVerse‘ Meet the Bar. Grace says:
The writing challenge: Today we will incorporate music in our poem from the perspective of a synesthete. Create your own Symphony. Infuse your musical experience when listening to a band, artist or musical genre, with colors, sounds & textures. Write a song filled with colors.
Some music is like a full rainbow…. I must admit I have never really listened to Billy Preston

Did you like the song? Billy Preston played with The Beatles quite a bit. Sometimes he’s referred to as The Fifth Beatle.

Now that’s a musician I haven’t heard from in ages, Lisa. I remember Bill Preston playing with The Beatles, and one or two singles my dad had, but this one is new to me. I love the movement of the colours in your rainbow haiku.
