Monday With Blue Brushes

Still life. What bite have my grapes and plums? I capture the glaucous coating — the powdery residue. A fairytale gown needs just the right godmother-dusting of azure. The sparkling suds and frothy thrust! The concoction of a great day — my brush reveals teal and Caribbean waves. I long to drip my palette into deadpan eyes. Her passion invigorating a sensual stimulation. Without God’s transcendent palette, the chameleon must wear zaffre. I muse… 7/12/2018 Cozart’s Brevity in Blue Poetry Contest 74 words according to PS syllable counter

I am guessing one of the PSers flew the coop because a comment below says something about second place. So I guess I have been bumped to first :)
