BLUE

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.

Nice one, J. I like the space in the poem. The breeziness of the structure fits the subject matter well. Keep up the good work.

I am glad I stopped by for this one. This is the feel good of feel good blue. I think we, too often, associate blue with well you know....I don't want to spoil the mood. My spirit soars in blue. Excellent piece.

Yo...you made me step outside of the way I view you as a poet. I've really never read your more "natural" poetry and this is beautiful--especially since my favorite color is blue.

GREAT WRITE!

[Brooklyn Darkchild]

Either you fixed this up or... somebody's trippin. Cause...I...don't...see...no...syntax errors.
But everybody don't speak our language, you feel me?
Stay Blessed!

I love the whimsical nature of this poem, an entirely different, totally refreshing outlook on the color. I will never look at "being blue" in the same light again.

� Makes me wanna reach out �.and touch tomorrow� �.kinda blue

suspended softly from yesterday"

Definitely the kinda blue I like.
Be Blessed!

What a lovely way to think of "Blue", its so odd how we take colours for advantage and yet they give so much beauty.........I love this, its wonderful.........rich and the layout is fab!!

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

I love the tone, the melody, the overall flow of this piece. It's why I love your writing so much, because it flows like...oh, I can't describe. But this one here seriously makes me want to throw on a tank top and a bathing suit, some shorts, and just go outside and enjoy the day. Go outside, read a book, and just enjoy.

Wonderful words!
