My Shade of Blue

----------------------------

my shade of blue
is dancing at sunrise
a four quartet with
a piece for each season

my shade of blue
is waking on Sunday morning
the gospel I see
in your eyes

my shade of blue
is the depth of your words
with the simplicity
of sound

it is unknowing
what my eyes are meant to see

and seeing
what you intend to be

my shade of blue
is a name and not a time

my shade of blue is you
and it is mine
