Blue - A Poem

 

BLUE

How blue am I as I stare at the sky?

My hair a mess, my strange speckled dress,

My hat so yellow, my heart so mellow,

The sky is pink, how odd, I think,

That I should hide beneath a melancholy sky.

One of us should be blue as the sea,

But it isn't me, it shouldn't be me -

How blue am I under the melancholy sky?
