"Blue"

The Color  today
will not be blue
Just too much, I say
Of living to do

Soon this ole' body
With no more to do
Be lifeless, by Goddy
With lips,cold and Blue

Good morning ! my Friend... What a pleasant surprise to hear from you. I could be thinking a Blue day here too. Today was suppose to be in the 60's and sunshine, But the sky is gray and no sun in sight.
Your visit just assured that I will still feel the Sun even if I cannot see it.
Thank You so much for reaching for the light and thinking of me and visiting this morning. Your thoughtful positive reaction was just as good as taking me by the hand and saying come on lets have a fun day anyway....Yeah ! how about let do fun rainy things and enjoy what is?

We can go stomp some mud puddles ! We can take a bar of soap and dress in our bathing suits and shower up under the rain gutter? Or better yet run naked in the woods? lol Feeling better now? :-)

[Cryingkate]

OOOH We could go hunting for salamanders and worms too

[Einstein Noodle]

all that sounds like great fun ..i'm with you!! :)

[Cryingkate]

Ok the before the day is done. We need to report in to each other which one we chose :-) Ha ha can't wait till report card time.... i challenge you my friend ! Who is the bravest//craziest of us all?

[Einstein Noodle]

i think naked salamander hunting ... catch and release of course! :)

[Cryingkate]

I can only visualize you coming up with a big fat snake..... This where i quit. I'm going to hunt down Rhubarb and asparagus I planted... You go ahead though and have fun hunting those salamanders.
I can't wait till you explain it all to Norma why you went out naked and came back with a salamander. Oh yah ! Let me know if you need visitors when she commits you. I'll swear I didn't know a thing... ha ha ha

These are true words for all of us delivered in a lovely way. I really like that the raw strength that's in the first four lines is further strengthened by the honest realization and acceptance of the last four lines. That really works well here, I have to say! :)

Perfect... Just perfect. That was masterful, my friend. Your language is beyond captivating. I'll say it again, I missed your writing and this was just a beautiful encounter in every way.

Connie Dear,
All too soon our lips will be "cold and blue", but for now I'll settle for pink and warm.

I enjoy the contrast of your verses … wonderfully expressed human side that can quickly swing from cloudy to clear, dark to bright, loneliness to love!

Speaking of love, I love how your mind and heart work together, creating and sharing such little poetic wonders as this one … hugs 'n warmest blessings, Fine Lady-Poet! ⁓ Richard

Reader feeling sad and blue reading a poem small sad and very blue hoping it not about you. No time for you to be Cold Lonely and Blue.

I do not know how exactly to classify this- positively negative or negatively positive? I think the end should be sensible if not happy always. A good write up:)

[Carolynn]

I like this and I agree with "too much living to do" :) we can welcome blue when all the colour is gone!

[Lyn Anderson]

is it a blue lip day? I just did one. Anyway, I like the little poetic license rhymey. Nice.

Live each day to the fullest, my friend. Blue should be the color for the ocean and the sky, not your soul. No, you will not be lifeless anytime soon. Too much living left to do! Lydi**
