Inspired by my poem ‘Figuring Out’ 

Figuring out 
What life means 
on my own 
I start with 
the flowers..

My verse is in roman and Cogito’s in italics 

N’er alone 
in the soil of love 
flora blooms 

inked 
swaying
in the blue blue sky 
blooms 

blue ink sways 
blues forget me not 
blue skies bloom 

blue spring ink
makes me forget 
all my blues 

blue ink spills 
true blue notes trilling 
blue bird trills 

cerulean spring 
little warblers 
take note 

a blue isle 
on a desert gulf 
oasis 

blue waterhole
on hourglass blue
spring oasis 

crystal bowl 
aquamarine sand 
blue bubbles 

cerulean collage 
sparkling dreamscape 
glossed blue 

crystal ball 
shimmering ripples 
aqua fish 

marine tinges 
twirling violet 
aqua leas 

aqua leas 
ultraviolet 
neon twinge 

asters shine 
sliver of Celtic blue 
blurple

Sterling star 
Daring aster risk 
Burple shine

Fluorescent 
Supernova 
Unconditional 

Blue nova 
incandescent hue
flora glows 

sapphire 
the stars and their light 
light years light

sapphire lights 
smoke ring from cigar 
UFO

color of smoke 
inhale exhale 
other from aether 

breathing words 
other from aether 
fill the void 

breathing deep 
aether speaks 
heavens streak 

blue yonder 
wild skywriter speaks 
heaven streaks 

ultramarine etched 
vignette drawn 
north winds roam 

morning dew 
aubergine flowers 
nightshade tears 

scented tears 
my pillow soaks 
nightshade glows 

in her mouth 
on her poet’s tongue 
words to come 

touché
taking the bull by its horns 
no more words 

I walk 
down the block 
haiku steps 

I gather 
my thoughts 
in haiku 

I’m so blue 
the sky and the sea
envy me 

blue is the blood 
that runs in my veins 
you turn it to ink 

bleeding ink 
her fountain gushing 
stains my fingers 

gushing fountain 
a quill 🪶 floats 
his inked fingers 

the massage 
is in her mirage 
wishing well 

toss a coin 
message in a wish 
shooting star
