Gypsie’s Wonderful World of Words

Shakespeare published 154 sonnets in his quarto in 1609. While the initial 126 are addressed to a young man, the final 28 are directed toward an enigmatic woman referred to as the dark lady.

Deep Blue

Azure Sea

By Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris

Response to Sammi Cox’s Weekend Writing Prompt #236 BLUE 38 Word Challenge

Colors all around

swirl without a sound

Upon the deep blue sea

azure water calls to me

Enter here and wish no more

magic found upon my shores

Leave your woeful cares behind

Sirens call made you mine

    The sea can be extremely alluring. A delightfully different take.

    Yikes! You’ve made me want to second guess any motivation I might have for wanting to be near water! But leaving my woes behind is such an attractive thought that maybe I’ll… just this one time…
