That blue flower gleams in mind
Its luster stark against the golden sands
Standing boldly amongst the famished land.
The flower’s allure snatches me again
With a rush of unyielding visions
My minds eye replete with bewilderment
Recalling the truth of my selfness,
That blue runs in my veins.
A blue flower (German: Blaue Blume) was a central symbol of inspiration for the Romanticism movement. My favorite period. The freedom of fantasy, and the Self in Nature.
