A patch of blue hope
A little ragged and pale
But alive with light

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Patch of Blue hope works well for me!
weeks trample on each other like magazines
just brilliant! blue symbolises a new beginning, and hope is always good! loved it!
Almost as good as a rainbow. Your patch of blue is a hint for us that better things are behind the dark times. And that hint and those better things can't be killed.
..
BTW, my 'blue picture' has patches but I didn't talk about them.
I believe your haiku would fit with my picture very nicely.

Beautiful!
Great words - and a beautiful sight to see.
It's all we need!
My grandmother used to say, "Is there enough blue to make a Dutchman a pair of pants?" when I would go outside and report that the clouds were breaking up and I could see the sky. In her day, Dutchmen wore voluminous pants that required ample amounts of fabric. So a lot was not a lot but enough to build hope on. Just a strange association I wanted to share. I enjoyed your post.
Blue is the color of hope. I love the light behind the clouds.
What a beautiful photograph...and your words brought it to life.
Beautiful Gemma!
I enjoyed your patch of blue.
Hope - that very vital lifeline! What an amazing and appropriate piece that celebrates and cherishes the divine optimism of "hoping"...
"Is there enough blue to make a Dutchman a pair of pants?"
at times it's just enough to make a dress for a lady on the beach ..
ur poem is subtle & poised
( ur cmnt platform troubles me always, but i get through ) ..
Those little patches are so plucky!
