Blue

snow falls far away
so far that it's hardly consequential
to mention it tho the snow falls never the less

blue forest trees refuse to burn in raging
forest fires while surrounding trees screaming
are consumed by the flames

what secret does blue possess?
the sky and sea are blue
as are mountains in the distance
which jutting peaks lick the snow
until wet
but the real signifier is this blue planet
which we call home

the blue keeps us all safe,
yet no one guards its deep blue hue
