Blue

an ode to the color blue

Blue is the color that runs through my soul. 

It is a river running long and true.

An ocean mysterious and deep.

No one truly knows what it holds.

Blue is always my favorite color.

Whether I am happy or sad.

Blue is the color of my soul.

It understands me, 

and I understand it's depths.

It captivates my gaze.

It all but makes my heart stop.

The red flames burn hot, but not as hot as blue flames.

Blue is the color of true seduction.

Blue is my favorite color, and I think it always will be. It’s haunting, but can be so many shades. I love the way you captured the color here, and if you could describe a color this poem could work. It’s just so detailed and wonderfully written. And I love how touched on the more fiery side of blue- people tend to forget blue fire is the hottest. Blue is such a deep color, and thank you so much for sharing this beautiful piece!

Wow, truly pulled me in. This is a great treatise on that color blue, aqua, azure... Finding warmth in the coolest color. Then again it is the coolest. Not cold, like black. Outer space. No, there is light here and a beautiful hue!

Tis said that one should have a mountain - green, to cleanse the soul; the sky and water - blue, to refresh the spirit. In those one has the world. Your blue encloses thought in a myriad directions. Beautiful

I love that, thank you, emma.

I love the way this poem is presented! The language is not flowery, and right on spot, and the words flow really well. Great poem!

I think of all of the colors, blue is the most calming and alluring though personally I lean towards green but...you can't make green without blue. : ) Nicely done, I like how this felt to read.

[light and ashes]
