Blue

Turquoise eyes shed tears

Salty drops blend in blue sea

Tiny ripples spread

Sunset casts lone silhouette

One woman, heartbroken, blue

Nice poem. Yes, it takes guts for a man to stand up and go against the grain. He did save a lot of lives but look what he got for that. He did the right thing and I hope he runs a good political race. You know he will stand up for what he believes and that is a good trait to have. love phhyl
