Blue

Blue kangaroos, azure primates,
 cobalt cats and dogs, bright navy 
 vertebrates for heaven's sake,
 perception is a fine and fickle sense!
 it's usually true to form, but when it fluctuates 
 you may wonder whether you are still awake!

This is a delightful verse, Keith. I'm so glad I found it. Poets are always dreaming, awake or asleep. I love this colorful and imaginative piece! Love and hugs, Robin

Thank you for allowing me to smile with this imaginative poem. I bet kids would love those "blue kangaroos." Thank you also for your kind words regarding my lanterne. Keep on writing and sharing your creativity with us. Have a good day. Karen
