Abstract
The article discusses the functioning of colourisms in the linguistic space of a literary poetic text and their role in creating an author’s worldview. For analysis, the poetic cycle by O. Fokina «Wreath of Sonnets» (1998) was chosen. Сolourisms are described from the position of the recipient. Among them are those directly denoting colours, as well as indirect colour designations represented by individual thematic groups of aesthetically significant lexis. The author considers their mutual influence and connection with the context; analyses the composition of colourisms, the features of their use and the role in creating a common colour palette of the cycle and visual flexible verbal images. It is concluded that the verbalization of colour in the «Wreath of Sonnets» by O. Fokina relies on the use of lexical units denoting colour both directly and indirectly (associatively). The direct colour designations in the cycle create a predominantly achromatic palette. The chromatic palette is formed primarily by lexical units denoting colour associatively
