Blue Quintain-2

What colour is the sea and the sky?
For the blue-blooded guy and the blue-eyed boy
And everyone else, they are blue, but why?
Blue whales are the largest, blue films some enjoy,
Soothing the nerves;  Blue, the blues, destroy.

Gwendolen Song Date: 3/19/2012 9:00:00 AM Hey,,,,I certainly missed this one, Jag...do u think blue is over rated?...What I like about this poem is the spectrum of blue it covers..have u ever heard of rhythm and blues music too?...Lovely, friend. Just lovely. Check out an older poem of mine ....Diamonds and Rust-My Dad's Favorite Song...then cut and paste the link below it...there is a rhythm and blues song you should love...most American poets love it too. Hugs and a warm cheerful day! :) Login to Reply
