Red Once Blue

Poem by New Millennium Poetry

I fell in love the other day

I don’t know why

I’m not quite sure of what to say

We chatted as it happens all a while

We laughed smiled

The simple act

The fact of having

Recognized that underlying

Our conversations flow

Between our eyes

Beneath a glance or two

A bright brilliant ribbon of light began to grow

Swirled freely around my heart

Magnificence cast it’s spell

I surrendered to the art

To the bewilderment of you

Once Red now turns to Blue

This vibrance felt in me, flows from where?

Is this how love happens to start?

Afar out there beyond the dark

You are now alive in me a spark

Beating thudding irregular across my breast

Excitement in a pearl

A home open to the few

Is now yours to touch

Enriching me grace means so much.

Sweet smiles cross the night

To turn in me this living key around around around

Treasure is this place within me found

Shines blue it’s gorgeous light

To dazzle us our beating hearts

Is this right? Yet could be wrong?

Is this life in motion with a song?

It is new

Yes! life long I’ve listened

Waiting for this harmony a symphony in blue

Now turns again to Red in me

To Red in you.
