midnight velvet
crowning my hair
navy shaded
almost onyx fair
blueberry dark
and spruce glow
aegean as the sky
denim as shadow
azure and lapis
a covert operation
pray look twice
you'll miss notation
that ocean blue
plunging into abyss
daresay it's black
ordinary as please
yet when sunshine
passes through
the admiral teal
billowing sapphires;
a riot of vibrant cobalt
it dares to reveal.
