Musings on the colour blue

My Favourite Colour

by Terry Reilly

Why do I love the colour blue?

It's such an energising hue.

It dominates the summer sky

as fluffy clouds go scudding by.

It beckons from a tranquil sea

enticing bathers, you and me.

The look of love I draw from you

shines from eyes of cobalt blue.

Our planet blue still floats in space

though threatened by the human race.

Within the rainbow blue will glow

poised between green and indigo.

And when our moods are plunging low

blue's the colour that we show.

You can have your red and green,

upon my throne sits blue, my queen.
