Blue

Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose)

Blue sits in a house 

in waves she speaks 

in balance she smiles 

a soft sky sings without the birds 

blinking blues talk without the shape of a single cloud 

and the birds smile elsewhere resting on roofs 

taking a break from being with the blues

standing apart 

blinking blues without fluffy clouds

and those singing birds 

wandering waves without the friendly fishes 

a sea a wave or two talking

and other colours seem to be missing somehow 

 

 

the fish aren’t talking with their fins 

their  in the distance wandering in another wave

somewhere over there 

the boats seem to be on the sand 

and here is the blue missing the more today 

a wish for the singing birds to settle within 

a wish for friendly fish to flap their fins

moving with vibrant colours 

allowed to feel more than a sighing feeling and an internal world that feels that little bit empty 

 

 

blinking blues wish to sit with the birds singing 

wandering waves wish to feel friendly fishes flapping their fins 

because that’s just about right 

makes sense 

that sometimes we feel in the wrong place 

and something inside of us cannot help but sigh in sad blues

      Thanks so much teddy πŸ™‚ it helped a bit to write this . It’s difficult when we feel sad / down

      Really appreciate your support

      And yeah hormones can affect how we feel too

        I always associate blue with sadness
        So was good to see the blues tied in to this
        Keep em coming Violet
        Turned blue to gold

        • Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose)

          It can be associated with sadness yes .. but I guess there’s other meanings to the colour blue .. like calm , balance .. yesterday I felt kind of calm but also that sadness / or emptiness

          It felt nice to write to write this one

          Blue can be linked to the throat chakra and expressing yourself / honesty

          Thanks for the kind words on my poem ))

          wonderful imagery
          if blue and jazz music had words
          they would read something like
          your poem, I think..
          thank you! dear Poet
          a soothing read

          • Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose)

            Thanks for the lovely comment on my poem πŸ™‚

            I don’t really listen to jazz music but I know it can probably be nice .

            Least I was able to write a poem out of my sadness ..

            Isn't interesting how the blues can just arrive out of seemingly nowhere. Your lovely poem captured those feelings.
