Angeline said:Blue is not vacant
not when the sky holds
layers of light igneous
cobalt cyan navy your eyes
shade fear and retreat
spark flames of recognition
I say I might hug you
and chase his expressionless
sky that holds a universe
teeming with unspoken worlds
of sense, the longing to break
twilight and please
meet the earth I might
connect some days when
his blue is bright,
he smiles when I say
I might give you A NOOGIE,
toss my blue-black mop
to a wild pitch and monster
stagger after his tentative laugh
until he parts my hair, asks me
Am I scared?
No you're just alone
in blues that can't sing
loud enough for anyone
to know it's you and
I'm behind the strands
I've tried to knit
you a web
of safety I might
touch you
today.
RhymeFairy said:Excellent. Very touching.
You bring the reader into your world and share not only the hard times but a new world filled with nothing but love. Awesome feeling in that ...
Angeline said:Thank you RF.
It's about a teenaged boy I work with--he's a beautiful, gentle soul. So smart and so lost in his disability. Sometimes he lets me see him.
