Blue's the Color

The colors of lights are brilliant, intense There are many pieces around that’s blue The colorful light brings a loving sense The blue brings calm and saddles the wire fence She stands on one side and just looks anew The colors of lights are brilliant, intense She showers in the blue and sure does rinse It’s her pleasure to field what is her due The colorful light brings a loving sense The blue is often thick and often dense Blue’s the real color, it’s surely the hue The colors of lights are brilliant, intense She walks the ground of color that’s immense Her thoughts were spinning as her heart sure grew The colorful light brings a loving sense The blue lights sparkled, seemed not to be tense The lights are pure, special, to list a few The colors of lights are brilliant, intense The colorful light brings a loving sense
Russell Sivey
