Enya sat by Whispering Lake watching the sunlight’s rays dancing on the water. She threw a stone to watch it skip across the water, enjoying the ripples it made. The gentle breeze stirred through her strawberry blonde hair. She could hear the whispers of the lake filling her heart with contentment.
A chipmunk scurried from around the tree and a squirrel scampered up it. Enya watched the woodland animals play as her smile stretched across her face and shined through her eyes. Across the lake she saw something peek from around the tree. Their eyes met and for a moment she felt like the deer was reading her thoughts. Then all too quickly it ran away.
She sighed as she skipped another stone across the lake, why couldn’t life always be like this. Peaceful and serene. The sun shone down on her filling her body with warmth, flowing into her heart as well.
The day wore on and at Whispering Lake she stayed. It was whispering joy to her as she breathed in the fresh air, letting her mind be free.
Enya watched the clouds drift by in the emerald blue sky. Lying on her back she saw not just the clouds, but more. She saw them as ships sailing on the ocean blue, fluffy cats sleeping as they floated by and could that one cloud be a unicorn perhaps. Smiling she drifted off to sleep, dreaming of castles in the sky.
A rustle nearby stirred her awake from her dreams and she saw a cute white bunny staring at her as if telling her to follow. She laughed as she thought to herself, who knows perhaps I will go down a rabbit hole like Alice. Rising to her feet she slowly started towards the bunny, it turned and started hopping away. Keeping its pace slow so that Enya could keep up. Enya didn’t stop to second guess, the whispers of her heart told her to follow.
Every now and then the bunny would look back to make sure Enya was still there. Thoughts ran through Enya’s mind as she followed close behind. What would she discover? Where was the bunny leading her too? The answers were ones that only the bunny knew.
Maybe to Moonbeam Farm! 🙂

To answer your question about it being as creative as salmon blue ocean, yes Indeed! I mean have you ever seen the term “emerald blue sky” used before? Some brains are just too creative! 🙂

Creativity is a skill which (in written form) is intended to create an image in the reader’s mind, so they can visualize what you are describing. Successfully done, the reader will be able to share the emotions that the writer feels about that particular situation…… so ….. again….. what color is emerald blue? Googling it was rather unsuccessful, and I would really love to be able to visualize the sky you described. 🙂

From Wikipedia’s article about Emeralds, I have stolen this quote: “Emeralds occur in hues ranging from yellow-green to blue-green, with the primary hue necessarily being green. Yellow and blue are the normal secondary hues found in emeralds.”
So you see, you really can have an emerald blue sky.
