Trenna Sue has a great challenge. How would you verbally describe the term, “dancing leaves” to a person who has never had sight…
Very thought provoking I thought. I think this might be easier for a writer to explain, or a poet. Here is the post go check it out.
Talk about writers block.. I had to think of what a blind person uses most.. Smell, touch, sounds and taste…
Well this would be me trying to explain this:
You know the feeling of water in a faucet that is just trickling? Leaves dance like this in the wind. The harder the wind the faster the leaves “dance”. On my cell phone, I would show a video of dancing leaves with sound of course of fall leaves in the wind, then a video of palm fronds dancing in the wind and that fabulous sound they make. If willing I would take them outside on a breezy day and let them feel dancing leaves..
I would love to see others join in this challenge!
I love the fall season. Kids always like to jump in a big pile if leaves. I know I did!
Yes, they do. I never got the chance, but my kids did. I grew up in So CA, while my kids grew up in Arkansas. Lots of leaves there.
I love that sound of leaves whirling in the wind.
Me too, palm fronds and banana leaves are my favorite.
You sold me, I’m in…
Excellent, can’t wait for your addition. : ) I know Trenna will be pleased, and What a great idea!

it is more like floating in the air, similar to that empty plastic bag in the movie American Beauty.
But they would have no way of seeing the bag or movie. It was hard, but fun to do.
Very interesting post, hard to describe, I would say “Skipping”
Very tough to explain, yes.
This is a unique challenge and a great one to think about.
Exactly my thoughts! I loved the idea.
This challenge is very interesting
I thought so as well. What a great idea!
