Blue, Blue and More Blue

Blue, the color of summer skies. Blue is the hue of my lover’s eyes. Blue the one color that I adore. Great Grandpa wore blue in the Civil War. My mama dressed me in shades of blue Then held me close as a mother will do. Blue are the mountains and blue is the sea. No favorite color but blue for me. I’m fond of Elvis’s blue suede shoes. Blue Smurfs and blue cheese I also choose. A man who is poor or a man of means Looks much the same, dressed in blue jeans.
