What do you see there far away, <br />Horizon blue like you? <br />A touch of purple haunts your gaze <br />Enfolds your shoulders, too. <br /> <br />You are not real, a cobalt dream <br />Proportioned strange and tall <br />Your hand forever frozen still <br />Gaze steadfast, hid from all. <br /> <br />Persistent is your silhouette <br />Entwined in thoughts and dreams <br />Those shadows now more real to me <br />Than flesh and blood, it seems. <br /> <br />Your turquoise beauty blends so well <br />With tones cerulean blue <br />While somber shades envelop you <br />Like cloaks of nightly dew. <br /> <br />But wait, I hear your message now. <br />How could I be so blind? <br />Did gorgeous hues so mesmerize <br />Eyes also blue in kind? <br /> <br />You always gaze toward the sun <br />Await its morning glow <br />Not looking down, nor looking back <br />Though blue, you're here, you're now. <br /> <br />So thank you lady clothed so pale <br />For helping me to grow. <br />Amid life's follies, don't look backm <br />That 's all I need to know.<br /><br />Liilia Talts Morrison<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/blue-lady/
