Blue

By Laurel

Blue is the big strong ocean splashing all day long

Blue is the big sky up above our head all day long

Blue is the dolphin that jumps 20 feet in the sprinkling air

Blue is the fresh blueberry pie that just came out of the oven

Blue tastes like the blueberry juice dripping out of my mouth

Blue smells like the salty ocean water spraying out of a whale

Blue sounds like the pretty bluebirds singing in the morning air

Blue feels like the shining smooth sapphires rubbing my skin

Blue looks like the outside of the stars on the American flag

Blue makes me feel happy about my family being with me all the time

Blue is the river flowing all day long to the big strong ocean
