What is the colour of the wind?


While it sweeps me from the ground into its arm, I ask myself this: What colour is the wind? Is it the same colour as the rainbow when one can’t see it? Maybe it’s two shades darker. I doubt the wind simply doesn’t come across as two shades darker than the rainbow when one can’t see it. The wind could’ve been blue if the sky and ocean didn’t already take that colour. It’s an unwritten law of nature that only two thing may have the same colour. That explains why finding a red flower with red leaves is so hard. Blue is taken, so is green. Yellow? The wind is yellow! Doubt it. The wind colour of the wind could be like the colour of The Nothing that came and destroyed Fantasia or the song on the lane formerly known as east two blocks down from Sannie’s Spaza. Pocahontas aught to know she had that song about the wind and colour in her Disney movie. The wind is transparent but that’s not a colour is it? Is clear a colour? I want to paint my wall clear- definitely not clear.

Maybe the wind has no colour and this question is part of a conspiracy to get me blogging. You decide.
