The Roar’s 2026 Spring Writing Contest – K-2 Winner

Love is colorless. You can feel love, but you can never see it as sparkles coming out of the heart, and even when you make the love strong you still won’t see it sparkling in colors coming out from the heart.

You can see love in actions, you can hear love in words, and you can feel love with touch. Love can be shown by your parents packing your lunch box for school, a warm hug, or a simple good morning.

If love were a color, I imagine I would see love shining right out my parents’ hearts and floating into mine, a beautiful color of love. But even though I do not see love in colors, I do see love every day in actions, words, and touch.

If love were a color, it would be easier to see who loves you and how much. Love may not be visible in colors, but you can see it around you in plenty of other ways. That is what makes it special – it is a mystery because it is colorless.
