Color defines life. It brightens our world, it sparks emotion, it envelops everything.
Color is the personification of life. Color is like the delicate flame of a match. It burns with fierce intensity, and extinguished at the slightest gust.
Where the tendrils of color do not reach, land is left barren, and devoid of life. Without color only the void of darkness exists.
And then if seemingly by chance, a spark in the darkness ignites. Color explodes in every perceivable direction. Life is born again.

Color is the visual perceptual property corresponding in humans to the categories called red, green, blue and others. Color derives from the spectrum of light (distribution of light energy versus wavelength) interacting in the eye with the spectral sensitivities of the light receptors. Color categories and physical specifications of color are also associated with objects, materials, light sources, etc., based on their physical properties such as light absorption, reflection, or emission spectra. By defining a color space, colors can be identified numerically by their coordinates.

When writing my comment about how I didn't like it, I realized I wasn't actually understanding it.

Now I like it.

Humans and the higher primates are the only animals that can see it! (I know that's incorrect, but still...) However, I disagree that without color only the "void of darkness exists", as contrast and luminance can exist without color.

As much color we see in the world, there is so much more that we cannot see.
The ultraviolets, the warm infrared. All invisible to our weak eyes.
Imagine what the world would be like if we could see what other animals could see.

Ask a child blind from birth to look up at the sky, and they will raise their hands, reaching upwards.

Because you told them to look up at the sky?

It's kind of amazing to me that most people don't know that you can get any color from red, blue and yellow (except all the black to white ranges). And they don't know what colors to mix to get what colors. Let alone that less of another color will give a different hue of that color. This is so naturally basic to me it's like people are retarded or something.

and if you mix all three you can get browns

99.99% disagree with this. The people who love these 'classics' are stuck in the past, these movies blow.

You are completely wrong. You can get paint of a specific color by mixing RBY. However, color from paint is a subtractive process whereby broad spectrum emission is absorbed and only a specific range of frequencies reflected. This is not "color".

Real color comes in photons of different wavelengths. The addition of Red, Blue, Green, allows for color creation in additive (emissive) sources.

R + B + Y is one of those half lies they teach you in primary school, R + B + G and the interference of electromagnetic waves is what you learn in university.

Also, if you refer to specific papers on color space algorithms and quantification schemes, LCH (lightness, chroma, hue) is only one mathematical way to quantify color. It is perhaps the simplest, but other transformations of the color space allow for more accurate representations, such as even spacing in mathematical spaces for color differences.

Either I'm thinking too scientifically or you have mistaken colour with light. If you were trying to be poetic or something kudos to you sir I have no idea wtf your trying to express which means it's probably a decent poem. Otherwise pick up a text book, or even click this link. My it enlighten you (haha pun's ftw) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

(please excuse my Canadian spelling of colour)
its called a Tuque damnit!
