Ode to Blue
Blue marks the sky
and hides the ocean.
It hides the depths
of a person’s emotion
by saying they feel blue,
though blue flames burn
brighter than red, and
blue whales are
the largest animal
on Earth. But
spotting blue in nature
on our blue planet
is a once-in-a-
blue-moon experience.
Blue is made from
mankind. Blue cheese
is injected with
mold and the rhythmic
beat of the blues blares
from band instruments.
Both are infectious
but still, nothing beats the
out-of-the-blue melody
from a Blue Jay chanced
upon in the sky.
