Blue

I’d recognise your blue anywhere

Your voice a beckoning whisper and a howl

You speak in waves crashing

On the rocks I’ve made my home

I miss the way my eyes rest

Upon your endless form

I’d recognise your blue anywhere

The blue that carried me

Before my body could

Your thousand arms a cradle

You’ve been the one most stable

In my less than stable youth

I’d recognise your blue anywhere

The blue that puts my blues into perspective

In your foaming shores

In your darkest depths

You carry life

Mother of the unexpected

And I feel for the fools

Who believe they can tame you

And laugh at the ones

Who attempt to explain you

And when the time comes

I’ll humbly return to you

I’d recognise your blue anywhere
