Before summer gets too far behind us, I am excited to share this poem with you.

A Summer Palette in Blue
Relaxing on the deck of a cruise ship,
crossing the Caribbean Sea,
looking at the bright blue waters–
a blue like none I’ve ever seen.
Moving along with the waves peacefully and calm,
green and brown turtles
glide through this palette of blue.
Sailing through the glassy blue waters,
gold and silver fish
make their journey, too.
Fluffy white clouds
pillow the horizon of blue.
A flock of black birds,
looking for their next meal to eat,
soar over this ocean of blue.
Seeing a perfect view of paradise,
the gentle breeze of summer kisses my cheek.
As I lay in my lounging chair,
a tequila sunrise cools my hand,
I could sit outside all day;
enjoying the blues of this deep blue ocean,
while natures beauty is in full display.
