Blues and Greens Mingling
First year in Junior High
Unsure, vulnerable, afraid
First year in Junior High
Unsure, vulnerable, afraid
Art class....my favorite
Painting freely with cool colors
Blue and Green mingling
Luscious, beautiful, peaceful
Then the shattering words
My respected art teacher telling me
“Blue and green don’t go together,
They clash”
I crashed.
But I love those colors
My inner voice protested
Years went by
And I heeded her words
Much, much later
Blue and green escaped
And together broke free!
Mingling
God smiled.....
