Blue

Blue is so pretty 
Blue is so deep
Blue is the color
I see when I sleep
Blue can be light
Blue can be dark
I like the sky blue 
I see at the park

I love the subject - colour is fundamental to the world.

Very well written at such a young age. The meter is wonderful and it's so light and fun. Thank you for sharing your early work.

I would have to disagree with that teacher. I suffer from VERY vivid dreams - at times in colour. I think, at eleven, you may have had an insight that few experience, at any age.

Thank You Keith :) I had little knowledge when I wrote it other than the rhyme part required for my assignment. It was fun then and still is. (except my teacher said we do not dream in color) who knew? at 11? Thank you for your support.

That is so good for 11 years old. And still the meter is smooth and the rhymes nicely done. I enjoyed this Lenna.

Thank You Chris :) My teacher chose mine to read to the class, although embarrassing at the time, it was also encouraging for me. (probably why I saved this one)
