Premium Member Color Me Blue

Color me blue
Like the vast rolling ocean 
I can be most things
Serene and cool, yet, hot! 
Like a blue flame!
So slow to anger, calmly
I can battle many wills
Absorb all colors and shades
I Bend and blend 
Can mix and mingle
Yet, stand firm on my own
Loyal and faithful
Tried and tested you will find
True blue am I
In all seasons and times
With one fatal flaw...
Impatience!
That is me

Flower-Talk

The Lilies sent a message to the Lilacs:
There is not enough light at noon
Around these parts; what shall we do
Replied the Lilac, bloom
Bloom: where you are planted.

The Honeysuckle sent a note-
They are of course quite shy-
To the Climbing roses; whereof to spread
The Climbers replied, go high-
Higher: climb toward the light.

The Marigolds were wont to root
Beside the road, so dreary
Of the Baby's breath, they then inquired
How do you stay so cheery?
They whispered: just keep a young heart.

A Weed approached a Blue eyed stranger
Reposing alone, in thought
'I've no name either; now there's two of us,
you see' he said, conversationally
Replied the Blue one: Forget-me-not.
