Crescent moon tonight
I remember you
Won’t you switch the light
In the midnight blue
Otherwise there’s no
Life around here
I’ve nowhere to go
You’re so far, my dear
Will you press that button
I can’t wait my love
Come all of a sudden
From the high above..
Blue Wine
Oh, a night alone, slept
I woke up. See the glass
Dark lights in my room
Wooden fireplace light
Red wine in the glass
Why neon blue light?
Can you imagine it?
Can you imagine it?
Blue is my wine
Sign of a mind
Hmm. Optical illusion
Sensors of eyes’s lives
Dark
Dark
Dark light
Light dark
Blue is red
Red is blue
The
Blood
This is
The original
Sign
Of Blue
Live of
Life
Its the kind of cold
Where we draw hearts on windows
And see the evidence of our breathing
We know we're alive because
We feel everything
The air pinches our skin
"Wake up and don't go"
But as the candles slowly dimmed their light
and we drank the last bit of the Merlot
Our cheeks went flush
Saw the blood rush in
Like a tidal wave
Too late to save
So I hide in plain sight
And I cover my face
You pull my arms down;
Tell me I belong in this place
Its the kind of air that pumps
straight into your lungs
Breathing life into words
that roll off smooth tongues
It's the kind of night
the light scatters through
Convince me to stay
I'll turn everything blue
the light blue snow eyes of winter creep into the meadow
she glistens with a dazzling whiteness that brings silence
a hush is created as lightly falling snow lands as glitzy cover
icy frost may follow, which will bring crunch to footsteps
I admire winter’s mark, she makes no apology for frozen tundra
doing what she does best, giving us a sparkling prettiness
snow deepens while winter sends in wind to stun us into silence
there is a revitalization I feel in her frosty reintroduction.
Brexit Sonnet No.3
‘Light Blue Touch Paper’
So who can tell me what is wrong or right,
Who can channel thoughts along the track?
Dare I stare at mainstream media light,
Or risk fake jokers from social media pack?
A binary Cameron gave us choice for life,
An In or Out, a Remain or Leave to choose.
Campaigns misleading, cheating lies were rife;
In truth, I believe he thought he couldn’t lose.
But now I find a new voice rising high.
A grandee from the past has now reprised
Tarzan’s ‘Oh my darling’ shrieking cry;
To set his stall against Brexit’s blatant lies.
Powerful and not expected, this light blue voice.
Light blue, a touch paper, from age o’ little choice.

a calm blue snowflake
white all over on the land
how lovely to see!
This
Rose
Of Blue.
A touch of
The impossible
Is attained by the lover.
What was once thought could not be done, was implausible
Is attained by passion and fervency which lay dormant and inactive in the heart, this light blue rose.
The world relies on speed
Everybody is in a hurry to get things done
Until the moment two souls meet
And time stops so two halves can become one
Looking attentively in your eyes, I saw the sun
Two pair of sparkling blue pearls because of sunlight
Floating and drowning, neither the sky or the sea could have won
I found myself in the middle of the universe and it was bright
Beautiful and breath taking like a summer day might
In a matter of seconds you had pulled me in
Mysterious and addicting were these emotions under night-sight
A landscape eager to be explored was your soft skin
Not thinking rationally is what it means to be in your presence
The core of your being as a woman,yes, I lost to your essence
in the land of blue rays there are long days!the wemen are differnt from here i held them so dear!the sun is blue too it tingles you!they beleive in three great spirits creaters of infinity loving as can be!they walk around seldomly talking cause they are telephic you see angelic beams of the spirits light their moon is bright orange at night!angels from another world i need you now,please come to me and show me your light take me too the land of blue rays tonight!
melodic open
blue throat chakra overflow
soft and kind words of
too much wisdom from
lil child of a few short years
prophetic and calm
sweet lines of peace stay
on her lips both night and day
giggly bluebird speak
Being the color blue is not always sad..
I can cover the city sky with the sun in the middle,
and thats not so bad..
My light shade of blue opens a beautiful spring day..
A darker shade is sprayed with little stars that take
your breath away..
My light shade is the ocean covering your feet..
A darker shade is the moonlight hittng the water
for a warm evening treat..
So my color blue has always gotten a bad rap...
So rest assure I will color it light blue as my sky will cover you as you
lay for a afternoon nap...
inspired by "crayon contest"
The words have fallen silent now
And dreams passed away
The pills have taken over and
I don’t know what to say
My bags have all been packed for me
The driver waits impatiently
Not car nor driver
Fits this mystic land
The hallway doors each filled with they
Who’s eyes plead out for me to stay
It hurts to see
That they don’t understand
I never will forget my time
Amongst these friends of song and rhyme
They’ll always hold a place
Inside my heart
But time has past...I’ve given in
And let the pressure finally win
“You have to fix
The world you tore apart”
And so I tread this path I took
Once in the car, a final look
Such hidden beauty
Few shall ever know
Then view dissolves to rising dust
A cold inside, a dampened must
Another pill
Will get me where I go
Yes words have fallen silent now
No longer is there rhyme
No longer is there light except…
The light of blue sunshine
...Tribute Blue October
(Hourglass poem)
I look at the sky and see clouds
Blush and cover sun as they flood
And light grows small as they go by
I watch them as they cross the sky
I see clouds change into weird shapes
Sometimes the sky is a blue grape
But there are times when it turns gray
And that's when the sun fades away
Looking at the sky is quite nice
I'd love to watch it more than twice
As they glow in the night so bright
And count stars in the sky at night
And count stars in the sky at night
As they glow in the night so bright
I'd love to watch it more than twice
Looking at the sky is quite nice
And that's when the sun fades away
But there are times when it turns gray
Sometimes the sky is a blue grape
I see clouds change into weird shapes
I watch them as they cross the sky
And light grows small as they go by
Blush and cover sun as they flood
I look at the sky and see clouds!

Trying so hard to find my way
Through all this work while others play
Trying to find the words to use
To paint this in some other hues
The notes are shimmering my eyes
In echoes holding no surprise
Cold shivers blowing raspy tones
Self hugs swaying tired moans
As memories ache within my bones
Too bad and leavin' what's the use
Too sad to even sing the blues
The beat goes on within my head
A fever pitch of throbbing red
Put rhythm in this sweeping thing
Hum along then start to sing
It aint so bad don't feel so blue
You've got a job and work to do
Pick up the beat and dance it through
ALL THE MANY COLORS
The colors are in all of us
We can see the color in our hearts
We may feel apart but we are not
For all the colors merge like a prism of light
Ohhhh so bright
CHORUS
Rain.. Rain.. Rain on me Rainbow
rain your shower of light like a beautiful bow
I see the multi-colors shine bright
From with in.. Don't give in
To this black and white muldane world
Shine your light bright with your rain….booow
See the promise land the road leads into
Your heart we are never apart
When you climb life's trails
Climb into my heart..there
You will be safe.. be not afraid
CHORUS
When there is dark clouds..
Remember the blue ones behind it
Don't fret when the storm blows over
You have my promise in the blue sky alright
CHORUS
Love you my Jesus.. thank you for the rainbow in my heart
