Blue Words

I like my Blue Wordle.  It's intriguing.

I don't know what started this today.  Maybe the Shades of Green the kids did sparked it, along with noticing how the ads relate to the day's topic.  I wondered what would come up if I just manipulated my words on the page.  Of course, just writing green has now altered how the page is perceived. 

The words we use are interpreted by others.  Sometimes the perception has little to do with what you meant.  But that's how it goes.  Hmm. Maybe that's what started this.

Bleu
Indigo
Sapphire
Bluetooth 
Periwinkle
Blue screen 
Blue ribbon
Turning blue
Ol' blue eyes 
Sky blue pink
Deep blue sea
Black and blue
Alice blue gown
Talk a blue streak
Blue skies shining on me
Something borrowed something blue
Don't step on my blue suede shoes
She wore blue velvet
Singing the blues
Blue on blue
Feeling blue
Robin egg
Blueberry
Turquoise
Blue bird
Jet Blue
Navy
Blae

  1. It's great you are using some of the tech tools. Like wordle, look up http://www.tagxedo.com/. You'll like it too. But, your poem is fun, creative & clever-both in content & the look. Thanks for the inspiring idea. Maybe it would work for a synonym unit?
