Blue

In the quiet night
Blue melancholy color
Softly wraps my world
Hold fast to the blue mood song
Its what the heart neads to hear

Reminds me of moody blues from my high school day. Did you know that band? Love where you took this Barbara, It looks like Francine already warned you to just use Blue in your title. LUv, Andrea

This is very touching, dear LNC. The blueness can devour us. Wish there were something I could do to help dispel this feeling for you. Please let me know how the twins are doing when you have time. Love, Carolyn
