Poetry: “Blue”

blue ocean - grass beside the sea

Blue

by Ivy Yu



Ethan’s favorite sweater

The chairs in which I sit

The jeans that Joy always wears.

Crickets chirping

The endless questions my mom fires at me

The calming sound of the ocean.

Sweet, juicy, ripe blueberries 

A blue raspberry lollipop

Berry yogurt.

The cold, refreshing touch of popsicle on tongue

The exciting brush of ocean waves on my toes

Rain on my bare skin.

Cool, calm, refreshing… It's a lifelong summertime.
