Mirror of blue





Calm this blue heart
Through water-clogged days, grassy blights- 
Calm this blue heart
With buds and songbirds for a start
Gilding sky with gold color, sight
Of robust sun, beckoning light-
Calm this blue heart

    The rondolet works so well as the repetition creates the calm - a lovely line too

    Quiet a lovely entry, Grace. The blue heart bookends contrast neatly with lively array of colors sprinkled throughout. Very effective use of the form. SK

    A touch of robust sun will not only calm this iced blue heart it may in fact thaw it. A pleasing rondelet Grace.
