~*~ You were the darkest shade of blue before the rains came the breath of spring and the promise of renewal an endless whirl of winds in the offing. You were the anticipation and thrill of it all that waits to wade in summer sapphire shades strung out along the strand of time. It was you who hinted at the glints sparkling on the horizon within my grasp, beyond my reach. As if a spin drift had picked up the breeze making my heart skip, you were sheer blue an endless passion in clear view. We traced the clouds with finger tips embracing the moments and polishing the edges while we skirted and skimmed the sands. You taught me about low tides and secret coves where water pools splashed in shades of blue. You were the soft touch that sends a chill and carries over on wayward winds. You were my mood setter the catcher of my breath taking in the twilight a kindred spirit that builds a fire inside. Warming my thoughts in winter you were puffs of smokewood and the frosted blue blanket of snow that kept me covered. You were a stream of steam rising to the top my song for every star. as constant as the break of waves. When I write of you, in royal blue my eyes glass over where you surface in all your splendor. A slow take, unobscured blending color and clarity that comes to life. Lingering long after the moments gone you are the best part ofmy dreams. Dashing in shades of blue that never fade. ~*~ |

Deep, deep, deep, sigh... Dear Bluesy, Everytime I read another poem you've written I'm sure that it will remain my favorite of your's, but I just realized, they will just all, have to be my favorites. I adore this one. And I adore your spirit. Rich |
