If I Were Blue

I would embrace the world, envelop it.

The waters below reflect my being,
I am of hints in a peacock’s tail,
In gay abandon its spreads its feathers to dance to a tune unheard.

I am the color of happiness, in a bride's something blue.

The color of sorrow reflected in a mother’s blue baby
The color of gloom in the days after,
The color of the bluebells she so loves,
The color of walls she decorated thus.

The color of sapphire glinting at her neck,
Reflected in the eyes of the beholder,
A blue so deep, it peeps into his soul.

It is a thing so cold, unbelievable heat,
Blue stars in space depicting such.

A flash, a streak of brilliant blue
Nestling somewhere in a rebel’s pure mane,
The color of her ripped jeans.

A moon so rare, the sky so dark,
The color of heaven
Not the devils share.

Roses blue so cold in the winter,
The veins fragile networking across
A beating, thumping body.

Deep in the recesses of a dark blue sea
Lives a magnificent tiny fish painted a startling blue
By god’s loving hand,
Placed as a microscopic dot alongside a blue whale.

If I were blue……………………….I would encompass the world.
