Blues

You sing the blues but here you see
the difference in tone.
From cold to warm in slow degree,
colour of sea alone.

The warmest hue comes from the sky,
evenly painted blue.
You’d think that nothing goes awry,
it’s too good to be true.

The question is if such a mood
helps overcome the blues,
or does it give to doubts more food,
which you set out to lose.
