Dory and smurfs,
    and a cloudless sky,
a flash of a kingfisher
    flying by,
forget-me-nots, blue tits,
    a sapphire ring,
a wood full of bluebells
    in the spring.

There's something quite cool about blue and your poem was refreshing.

Thank you, Jenny. Trying to think what catches the mind of a child! Rhiannon

I loved this, but feel sad that many children won't know about blubell woods and kingfishers. Smurfs, Dory are more real. Thinking about it, lots of children's characters are blue aren't they? Thomas the Tank Engine, that big monster in Monsters Inc.

Yes, well like that book about lost words, we have to try to reintroduce to their minds some things. I should have thought about Thomas! My mother-in-law was baffled by Dory and Smurfs, but was content when I said they were children's cartoon characters! Rhiannon
