My Blue Lane

The sky said nothing

Azure, royal, turquoise

The clouds kept coming

The allure of a lost cause

All the shades of blue

Can be spectacular

Trajectory singular

Serenely ethereal

Always peculiar

This is my blue lane

The mind’s azure bullet train

Speeding through knowledge

Hiss, shriek, and sigh

Gone steel berserk

With my heart’s desire

By trying to be better

What have we done to each other

My walls built up so high

You can barely see behind

Let’s break it down

And release the clown

The life of the mind

Pulsating with rapture

Come with me on this life’s adventure

Cackle until we’re blue in the face

Look into me with a sapphire gaze

Mix a different shade of blue

The soft chirping kind

As nature intended

Primeval and wild

Being and nothingness

Cyan and cerulean

The waters have spoken

Silent yet salient

A cobalt moon whisper

Distant and alien

But I’m blue no more

In this cold light of evening

I go through new doors

As the visions bring healing

This ember of living

This path of giving

Share it for a while

Then vanish
