Big Blue

Oh, big ocean blue below just like the big blue sky above.
Many amazing shades of blues you can see from near to far.
With white fluffy foam on the water below and white fluffy clouds above.
The changing big ocean blue and the changing blue in the big sky from dawn to dusk.
May I always see and enjoy the many amazing shades of blues from near to far.
What a sight you both are to see from dawn to dusk.
Oh, big ocean blue below just like the big blue sky above.

For some reason, I thought you had been here a lot longer... A lovely first post.. This was not really a contest, it was an opportunity to showcase your first poem and I am glad you entered. Thank you.

I have read this and few other poems by Paula Goldsmith. She writes innocent poems deeping herself in childhood or keeping herself under the open sky; her poems exude a frank simple beauty.

I enjoyed the comparisons you elicit between the blue sky and ocean, Paula. Maybe not a sonnet, but lovely verse just the same. Hope you will find your stay @ Soup pleasantly rewarding. ~ Best regards // paul

I truly appreciate the beauty of your lovely poem, Paula, as I love the ocean and sky in all their gorgeous shades of blue too and find immense inspiration in both. Wonderfully done. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

My favourite colour, in all shades. I love the Ocean, I equate it with Life, the sky is an open heart clear blue skies and stormy clouds defibrillating lightening ... ah, what secrets the sky conceals and reveals. Beautiful poem, got me visual, feeling and thinking. x
