Back in February 2016, I lost my beautiful and loving mom to pancreatic cancer. 😭
To deal with that pain, I started creating the “Feeling the Blues” jewelry line.
Here’s a poem I wrote…
The Color Blue
In between violet and green
Is the color, blue
With my very eyes, I’ve seen
The many variants of this hue
💙
There’s cobalt, dusk and aquamarine
To name but a few
The numbers so obscene
I had absolutely no clue
💙
I’ll show you what I mean
Just follow on through
Read on your screen
Keep your eyes glued
💙
Saturation and intensity of light
Cause a waterfall of cascades
From dull to bright
With tints, tones, and shades
💙
If tint is white
And tone is grey
We add black as night
This is a shade
💙
Check out this view
A sky of sodalite
Birds flying in a queue
Such the sight
💙
In the bayou
The water a rich apatite
An owl – who who
With fireflies in flight
💙
As we continue on
This poem on blue
Written by Beth Malbon
Who knew, did you?
