Blue Magic

Blue Magic



               Nitrogen and oxygen meet wavelengths in a sky gathering
                    The sun beams into the atmosphere causing a sort of scattering

                    An optical effect of a smeared canvas mistakenly blue
                         A visual sort of sorcery because the colour is not true

                         Same type of occurrence happens within our bluish eyes
                              It's a different type of scattering that makes a colour disguise

                              Not one single persons eye carries any cyan pigment
                                   But I know it's hard to believe while seeing something different

                                   Another ruse of blue comes from atmospheric perspective
                                   You know off in the distance, yah a mirage you guessed it

                                   However no need to worry for blue is a colour true
                              The most decorated colour of history uniform navy blue

                              Vincent Van Gough used ultramarine with a little cobalt too
                         And Augustus Renoir used it primarily to set the mood

                         Afghanistan mined Lapis Lazuli adorned every Egyptian Crown
                    In the Renaissance Era marine pigment is most commonly found

               Even though this iced midnight colour plays magic in our eyes
          Over 50% of the populations most favorite color is of the sky
