Daddy's Colors

words

lighting up

as if colors

not seen

heard

within the heart

Daddy’s colors

his words

in love

spoken to the baby

seen in light

series of poems based on

segment on how babies,

when they are wearing a brain cap,

to do EEG measurements, don’t always

have the visual cortex light up

when they see something but sometimes

have the auditory cortex light up,

as if they are hearing the image, the colors.

at about 6:15 minutes to about 8:45  minutes
