Sapphire Soul

Red is lonely, bereft in aqua isolation Missing that misty half, that sapphire soul- Cool balance of crystal breeze to luscious lava The teal serenity of marine ocean, the bliss of indigo twilight... 5/8/19 Originally in 'Red is Blue' poem on this website For Liberum Divisa contest Sponsor: Gregory R. Barden

The sapphire soul ...this has inspired me to write my own poem. But would this borrowing be okay, Michelle?
