Indigo

Indigo

Daughter; in the beginning

I give you Blue.

Oceans’ Blue you crawl the sands

Towards waiting arms of surf to -

The expansive azure great-grandmother crossed

Landing you here.

I give you

Dusk to Midnight Blue; hold the hanging moon

Raise your arms to night beams.

Jay Blue, for you to have bird eyes,

Watchful, quick, on the fly.

Sky Across Clouds Blue - floating place

Of red kites, purple balloons, silver airliners -

A way to her ancient face, La Luna.

I give you

Art Blues: wet finger colors painting a small world,

Peering from the darker, starred universe,

Giving you secrets; happiness, freedom, loud Voice.

Bathwater Blue; pleasure liquid to soother many cares,

Sudsy, swimmingly cool.

I give you

Tears Blue, nearly diamond colorless.

Cotton Denim hues; public skin tough, dirty play

And city new - comforting, breathable, Blue.

Daughter, this is only the beginning.

The primary color, your way

To Blue for Bravery.
