With the discussion of colors and our individual perceptions of them, words  kept nudging me to write a few words about them.  I finally gave in and wrote this quick little piece. I have included it in body of email and also attached it in Rich Text Format.  Hope you all enjoy!
 
My Skies

I have colored skies
in  transparency of azure
and have imagined them
as indigo after a summer  storm. 
They have bled for me
the blue of midnight,
when stars whisper  their secrets.
They have wept for me
the honesty of deep cerulean,
when  nature creates a flawless canvas. 
And have enlightened me
with  green-tinted cyan,
when the sea has touched the sun,
and intrigued me with  scattered bits
of royal porcelain as day slips into night. 
My skies have  shared their journeys,
their destinies,
their shades and shadows
in the  colors of blue.
