Blue is the warmest colour

A poem by Ashley

There I stood before the denouement

Beholding the serenity I have wished upon

Musing if you too see what I descry

Or if it just simply passes you by

Do you feel kissed by the sun

Basked under like second to none

Or is it just me innocuously

Riding waves on the undulating sea

Twirling over the weightless joy

Palpitating away the drift to be coy

And in a flurry I whimsically followed

Sensing it was something borrowed

Yet it quaintly brought me back home

One I have sorely missed and known

Where blue can be the warmest colour

If you just looked a little deeper
