Reflections of You

Reflections of you are colored in blue like the sky on the day we first met. The sky was so clear; your eyes were so dear. Such a day I could never forget. Reflections of you are colored in blue like the bluebells nearby where we lay. Their scent in the air; your soft golden hair. How I longed in that moment to stay! Reflections of you are colored in blue like the lake where we often would laze. Together and free; your arms around me. Now I yearn for those sweet summer days. Reflections of you are colored in blue like the twilight that too soon would blend with shadows of night as stars lost their light and the love of my life had to end. For the Weepy Quatrain Contest of Laura Loo (I hope multiple quatrains are ok!)

Geez did it take me a long time to find this poem you took your winning excerpt from your poem renamed "Blue!" It was well worth the time I spent searching for it though. I missed reading this beauty Andrea. It is a gorgeous melancholy poem expressing the glorious bliss of love. A very belated Fave from me! : ) xxoo

How my heart fell on the last line, Andrea! The song "Stardust" from "Sleepless in Seattle" kept playing in my mind. Hugs and kisses. Roy
