Color of Blue

Through dark of night, with streaks of blue A profile rich in rhythm's hue A sweaty brow, in smoke filled rooms Where eyes must close and hips must sway No other way to listen... Lucille is strummed, seducing ears Through dark of night with streaks of blue With eyes that shed, from deep inside Emotion stirred, and feet will glide No other way to listen... A king who plays, my sharp-caught breath Is taken to another place I swoon to hear the music blend The night is long, the blues, no end No other way to listen.... _______________________________________________ Inspired by Raul Moreno's contest...".B.B.King"
