Bold in Blue
Breelyn Shelkey
In a grayscale world
he is Adriatic blue
with a cobalt aura
Deep sea pigments
eyes can barely probe
Bleeding technicolored streaks
onto dull canvases
Forever floating in sapphire oceans
Basking in moon glow
Sinking to soft sand bottoms
Refreshing. Relaxing. Reviving. Reassuring.
Sentient, tingling underwater
Ultramarine and coral mesh lavender
as tantalum tides cradle dreams
