BLUE

BLUE

A Poem by J. Hampton
"

Something written laying on my back ....just taking in Gods handiwork

"

 

 

 

Amazng …Space

Amazing…. Sky

Amazing….Day

 

My time…

My moment…

As I just lay back …..and carpe’

 

I…. I-n-h-a-l-e  it

Till I taste it

Climb outside my self

Embrace it

 

Sunshine…….. like forever ….

And… forever……..Ever

Warms my face…

My belly

Like the perfect lover

 

Thinkin’ bout a bit of nothin’

A lil’ somethin’ BLUE

Borrowed from the very hands of God

 

BLUE….undefineable …blue

As far as I can …ever…imagine seeing

Or……..want to

A thousand hues…..dancin’ real close

 

“ Makes me wanna reach out ….and touch tomorrow”  ….kinda blue

delicate like powdered whispers

suspended softly from yesterday

 

It almost …..cools me

Just watchin’

 Perfect….

BLUE

Un….definable

Blow-my-mindable

BLUE

Beautiful. Your really have a way of just reveling in the moment. You might want to add a bracket at the begining of your first tag for center, just look at the begning of the poem and you will see wat I mean. Once again, I must tell you, I love how you are able to suck people in. i really felt like I was laying on top of a sunny hill with a cool breeze blowing across my face, staring at the sky, just drinking it all in.

Excuse me please that I am reviewing this so late. But I am here, anyway. I do read.

this was sweet and your structure with the blue color was trully working for this poem. It was a feel-well poem, one what makes happy and the resulting feeling is making my day....I look out of my window and it is a blue sky. what a wonderful world. the sweetest things in life happen by coincidence and unexpected.

this makes me think of that line from the color purple where she says i think it pisses god off when people walk by the color purple and don't appreciate it ...

i love this description:
.kinda blue
delicate like powdered whispers
suspended softly from yesterday

and this stanza has a nice kick to it:

I� I-n-h-a-l-e it
Till I taste it
Climb outside my self
Embrace it

reads like it would sound supreme ... hope all is well with you!

Hey,
This poem seems to get out of ...the Blue...
Smile...
I love it: really. Can imagine Stevie Wonder would sing
"Amazing �Space
Amazing�. Sky
Amazing�.Day

My time�
My moment� "
I also like very much:
� Makes me wanna reach out �.and touch tomorrow� �.kinda blue
delicate like powdered whispers
suspended softly from yesterday "
Thanks for taking us to this beautiful color!

so full of appreciation and hope, and i like how you emphasize the color "blue" using blue font throughout the piece.

a thousand hues...dancin' real close...great line!

climb outside myself...another great line!

i really enjoyed this, made me smile.

peace.

Real sultry, real mellow, real flowful, real Hamptonesque. This peaceful piece is truly my kinda blue. Perhaps I'll save my second reading of it for when I get home and can pop my favorite Miles Davis (and all time) album in the CD player. As usual, beautifully done.
