Oh, my-a lover of blue in all it's hues and symbolic meanings-memories within a pristine paradise-ice berg blues: deep dense the depth immense-I'll drown in your saphire eyes . THese are my favorite lines . Very arresting on a hot summer day of reviewing.

This is an excellent entry for the contest. Both the picture accompanying this poem and the chosen colors for the poem itself makes for an exquisite presentation. We think that it's better than our entry. Best of luck in the contest.

I knew this was you the moment I finished reading the first stanza. Girl, you definitely have a style. This is exquisite. So many excellent phrases. My favorite is "pristine paradise". Under the arctic water surveying an iceberg. Also like "indigo dreams". Your color words are not forced into this piece at all. It reads beautifully. So very well done. I love when you write like this. Kiss Kiss

PS. Congrats on the cat.

    I'm so pleased you found this worthy of your 6! Thanks for your reinforcing comments. I was going to write "polar paradise" but "pristine" caught more nuance. I've been finding it hard to get into my poetic flow recently, with so many kitten interruptions. I really should have gotten an older, more sedate cat, but this one is so highly energized she's bouncing all over me and the computer and the mantle piece and the kitchen sink. She has to stay indoors til she's had her shots and her wound from the spaying operation has healed properly, so she's quivering with enthusiasm to wreak havoc in many laughable ways.
    Hopefully i'll be back into writing mood mode when she calms down a bit. I've got baby brain.

I enjoyed the alliteration here in 'Blizzard blue on ice' although it sent a shiver down my spine in your atmospheric write here, the chilling frost entered my bones, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

What a wonderful poem! It reminds me of getting lost in the beautiful eyes of the love of my life. I really love the way it flows; it takes the reader right through loss and into hope.

You certainly have chosen a color for this Choose a Color writing prompt. Many shades of thought as well as the colors you have chosen. Without those that you want by your side....there's always Blues. Best regards.

I love your use of the variations of blue, and how you layered them from cold to hot. By all means, let the turquoise waters and cerulean skies melt away the iceberg from your heart! Good luck with the contest.
