Blue

Blue is natural in its beauty. It can be icy like the Arctic or calm and stately like a spruce. Blue is deep like the Aegean; indigo, or cobalt, stark against the snow. Blue is splendid ink painting twilight skies or robin eggs, cornflowers and butterflies, peacock proud or cookie monster loud. Blue, like denim jeans, makes me smile or melts me like a blonde boy’s gaze. Dec. 1, 2017 for The Word Vision Contest of Vermillion Scythe

Blue is my fav colour, Andrea, but I also like turquoise (after all I'm an Aquarian!). Your imagery in blue is lovely with a witty flavor to it. ~ I see that this is a winning entry, so I send congratulations your way! Regards // paul

So serious, somber and then I got to giggle with the cookie monster. This is a playful display of talent and I'm sure my facial expression changed with each line of unexpected, poetic mood. A joy, dear one. Love ... CayCay (I get to type 'but' in the validate (captcha?) box, I'm delighted in a juvenile way)
