Something Blue

Passion progresses through thoughts of your cerulean eyes Your name brushes like silk wind through my sapphire skies Echoes distant across aegean waters burn flames of desire Striking with the force of midnight lightning blazing my fire The tickle of your periwinkle tipped fingers charges me up Fierce as rains from cobalt clouds that never seem to letup I fall adrift with azure bliss when your lullaby kiss summons Soft as a baby's cinnamon teddy with cornflower buttons And today I feel forever royal as we borrow something blue Powder petals scattered down an aisle simply meant for you As turquoise tears stream down your face happy for this life My heart races with electric as you stand to become my wife February 27, 2016
