There are those who mis-use my name to talk of sadness, being low and the singing of all the songs of pain...but that is not who I am. I am the colour of freedom, of wide open skies, of seas and oceans. I am the magic trapped deep in the ice and the colour of midnight with all its romance. I am the colour denim jeans and teenage daydreams. I am Sapphire and Topaz, the Akoya Pearl and the Howlite calming stone. I am throat chakra, colour of clarity and communication. I am freedom and truth.

It was indeed exactly what I envisaged for this prompt Kate. It seems to me we take colours for granted, much as we take most other things too really. But when you really focus then colour develops meaning for us.

Splurge is my favourite word when it comes to writing. I often say that all I really do is splurge onto the page.

You are so kind, especially back-tracking through my blog. I love it when people remind me of things I wrote a while ago. It's always good to cycle back and see what has happened in the meantime.
