I’m Blue

What is your favorite color saying about you?

Blue,
it’s my favorite color.
The color of the sky and sea,
blue, I feel is me.

Sea-green blue,
a magic hue.
Ocean waves,
tap dancing on rocks,
work their magic on me.

Ocean rock & roll wave rhythms
relax, destress, and energize me.
Blue’s serenity hue, inspires me.

Blue —
color of wisdom.
Am I wise? I do hope so.
Spread love and kindness,
Mom used to say — it’s wise.

Blue,
my color —
my inspiration —
my love and kindness color —
my soul’s soother —

I’m blue — a happy blue.
