True Blue

This is my humble tribute to the lovely color known as blue whether your a blue so bright or blue that's darker than the night. I love you in most every shade that the good Lord ever made like blue of endless azure sky or blue that's baked into a pie. The cobalt on a moonlit night when the stars are shining bright swimming in an inky sea is such a precious sight to me. Here's to the blue that's on the jay who chases other birds away and blue shadows in the snow as the evening starts to grow. Then there's the blue that is so light that you could almost call it white and baby blue that looks so sweet as booties on such tiny feet. So here's to you dear color blue the only color known as true a lovely color through and through this is my humble poem to you. Inspired by Kristen Reynold's Breathing Color Into January contest
