Light hits a wing & breaks into blue.
Mother Nature’s might can’t bear this hue.
Beams ricochet off poppy’s petal.
Plays off robin’s eggs & Greek nettle.
Sun’s gold shatters on navy ocean.
Rainbow’s prism shows cobalt’s notion.
Sunrise paints a cerulean sky.
Azure is caged in a lapis dye.
The iris can see light’s blue unfurled…
but blue’s not part of the living world.
