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.

The Wild Garden AdvenTURE Calendar takes people through twenty five steps towards understanding how the internet can be used as an interactive publishing tool. It is a comprehensive feature that celebrates work of an international, intergenerational group of people.
The 2006 Adventure Calendar preserved one of the Lemurian Journey's with Enchanteur. Likewise, the journey of the heart, along the Soul Food Silk Road was preserved after work completed in 2005. You can find links to the collection of the Soul Food Cafe Advent Calendars housed at Squidoo.
The Rookery features the work of a group of inter generational, international, creative women who have worked in Lemuria with Heather Blakey, gaining their 'raven wings' in the process. | Jim Whitlock on Leaf for the Past |

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

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

thank you
