I am Queen of Blues
The kind of blues that exists in all things
Above and below and about us.
With sea-faring eyes, that strive to see fair
An empath that can feel the change in the air which the winds carry the weight of their storms
I am Queen of Brown and Golds,
Living creatures for companions that I strive
Each day to help, heal, and understand.
They are big and small,
Sometimes both for a moment.
Struggles can sometimes send feet and toes scrabbling.
Arms may begin wrangling for purchase.
Will it bite or simply stand still
Will they come again, or ignore the signs.
But as queen they will all leave my domain better off than they came,
Though we all are left a little more cracked than before
I am Queen of Black and Purples.
Arms, thighs, legs, chest
Matters not as I will no doubt bear their forgotten emblems
Battles past won, challenges not yet faced
They will continue to come always
From minuscule to catastrophe
I will rise again, and come back to the same grounds the next day
Because I am queen.
I am Queen of Reds.
Doing all I can within my power to hold the heat in.
To feel the sting of that moment with biting steel
gets harder to ignore each passing day.
In different ways I ponder how tempting it would be
to let the red flow out
after crying to be heard, at last, for once.
Although some queens do not drown others and lose their heads
I have yet to discover which red queen
I may become.
I am a growing Queen of Greens.
With balance of healing, healing of purpose, and purpose of balance.
All these will take practice to make my world my own
The drive to learn more and try to make sense of what lies before me
Both past and future.
A gift from somewhere that gives me everything I will ever need
That I can continue to grow onward and become larger than myself
Even now I am slowly learning
That if I can be queen of all these things
I can be Queen of Anything
