(posted this as a reply on poetry challenge to write a poem about color. I really enjoyed it and wanted to share it here. Hope you all like it.) I love the color blue, the color of the sky in autumn's lap and of berry clusters tucked in sylvan fields. How it makes a lake more splendid to behold How it flows amid the oceans in their bellies, through their veins caressing many fish and corals brushing shells and oddities with sundry shades and styles swirling on the seaward miles. And lo upon the land it's hand is not one tincture less in skill, dexterity or grace bedaubing flower gardens, warbling birds and butterflies. Yet of all the things I love of blue, I love it's unique voice that ever speaks so winsomely of our creator "Oh how wise!" ... And then another color cries. -SDJ- |

Surely a rainbow of magic you have written and with you gifted pen only dipped in the blue! Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

Hi Stephanos, ...and now, thanks to your beautiful poem, I love the color blue...even more than I did before! ![]() ps: you know, when we get to Heaven, the colors will amaze us, I am sure. Such colors we never envisioned. Just look at the rainbow, really look, only a taste of that which is to come. Loved your poem. |
