So blue, but just the right blue
A sui generis shade
That lies In the middle of the spectrum
Not quite as dark as the midnight sky
Or as the gold-buttoned navy suit soldiers march home in
From war to kiss their sweetheart
Not as light as the serene seas bordering
Seductive islands with beaches never touched
In the corners of the world where the dolphins dance
Across the street
The swimming pool is a lighter shade from the lining
Fading over the years
Flecked green like mine
Pure like a baby’s in their first glance of
Our confusing realm between the stars
Containing a shimmer when the sun pierces them
Like the pavement on the summer city streets
A sweet innocence where to wrap myself
And take an infinite nap with you
Cloaking the affliction but glorifying the beauty in
The following day that follows this night
Just the right blue for me
