Blue Is My Colour Poem by Tom Billsborough

Blue Is My Colour

Rating: 3.5


Looking into sunlight,
My blue eyes
Now shut tight,
Allow this sapphire gem
To swim into my view,
Within a sunset aura,
My mind's lagoon
Turns turquoise as it fades.
I squeeze my eyes to hold
It fervently as though
It were a thought of just
Analogy to make
A song succeed. Too soon
It fades but not the pleasure
That the colour gives,
Nor the aptness of the phrase

Blue is my color too. I appreciate your ability to write about the color, and its affect on the speaker. I love the line, My mind's lagoon Turns turquoise as it fades. I squeeze my eyes to hold It fervently as though It were a thought of just Analogy to make A song succeed. Well done Tom!

not tried it for a few days. Very wet here! The blue is very intense. A fleeting idea can disappear very quickly. You should see me rushing around for a pen! Tom
