Blue

Feeling kind of low;
Emotionally distraught;
Color me blah blue.
Depression in full color;
No crayola can capture.

Crayola ought to add "blah blue" to their crayon mix, Joe. Guess gray-blue is as close as they get to the feelings you describe in your excellent tanka. Wishing you success in the contest! Love, Carolyn

I hope you are feeling better after writing this poem. It helps me when I'm feeling low.
