Non-Rec: Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows

[isabellerecs]

 

Prompt 1: Red

Red is a strong color that is associated with a variety of things including: courage, power, glory, love, passion, inner strength, romance, sensuality, defiance, tenacity, violence, life, pleasure, fire, and revolution.

 

For some, the color red can signify personal power and tenacity. When something flares red for you, what does that mean? When was the last time you felt the power of a red concept or emotion?

 

Please feel free to answer in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it a memory you share or an artwork you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: try writing a poem or a drabble that encapsulates the red theme.

~~~~~~

I have to admit that I wasn't super sure what I was going to do for this prompt. I've quickly realized that that was ridiculous because of course I'm going to have to find some appropriate recs. Though admittedly most stories are not themed by color, so I went to the lower hanging fruit of "red" being in the title.
