Into the Blue

We sailed away into the blue. Bright like the sun, my gladness grew as azure beauty of the sea engulfed us with serenity. Sweet joy it was - to be with you! We sailed away into the blue. I wished time never could erase that loving glow upon your face. To taste your kisses was sublime, yet I had known that since the time we sailed away into the blue, our precious time would soon be through. My eyes flew open! It was all a dream; I faced my bedroom wall and wept. It never had been true. . . we sailed away into the blue.

You did it. Congratulations! just read your comment on white sage's piece. Can't win if you don't enter is a good motto for PS. You gave a nice double meaning to the phrase "into the blue".

How creative and dramatic - a lovely poem, Andrea. Congrats on your placement! Two contests closed that I wrote for, but didn't get around to entering. Oh, dear and oh, well. It is all good! CayCay

I like the repetition of this form. Listening to classical music or any other kind of music, there is lots of repetition, this mainly because of color or sound, or some important phrase. Driving a point home is a valuable technique. Certain words and phrases in poetry are drivers, as in your title. I'll be absent for a while, but will catch you now and then. Love ya, daver

There is something to be said about water in a dream...but I'll let you look it up....you did catch me off guard with your final stanza. I wasn't expecting it to have been a dream
