Indigo notes in a purple sky
That's what daybreak looked like today
And plasticky blue at the petrol pump
When I saw a stranger look away.

At dinner then, I noticed a girl
In a lace cutout dress in Arctic glaze
And periwinkle flints on a hanky
That I burned on a whim, in a haze.

Agate is the shade of lostliness
That enters an empty home and invades
Today I could bear one more day
Because I saw blue in all its shades.
