Lemurian List Poem

« April 15 - Glass Class (Kerry’s website)
On Mad Challanges,  the prompt said to use lists to jump start your creativity.  So I took a list of my favorite shades of blue - mixed them with a list of alliterative adjectives, and here you go!

In Praise of Blue

by Kerry Vincent (c) 2008

Glorious blues,

those luscious hues:

Sweet cerulean,

sensuous saffire,

wistful wisteria,

delightful delphium,

precious Prussian,

mysterious marine,

calming cobalt,

alluring azure,

inviting indigo,

lovely lapis lazuli,

pale morning sky:

In my best dreams

I always dream in blue.

    What a great idea. I hope you will do one for each color.

    I’ve seen some weird things ( yeah really ) and it always seems like blue is the color I’d attatch to those moments.

    I think we all agree: Blue is beautiful! Kerry

    Kerry, blue is definitely beautiful. I just bought a new comforter in what they call River Rock Blue and it reminds of the soft blue and smooth river stones you find in mountain streams. Loved your poem — made me really feel blue ;-)

    and bingo! We have a stunning poem that will wash away the blues.

    and I thought I had seen so many blues myself–and then you open the window to let more in for me
    thank you :-)
