Blue is a special color,

Shading from red to green,

To give you a lovely palette,

With its choices from in between.

It's the color of the sky above us,

On beautiful clear blue days,

So welcome after winter storms,

When the sun sends warming rays.

Blue is the color of robin's eggs,

Such a lovely sight to see,

But they're usually hidden in a tree,

Far away from you and me!

Blue is part of Old Glory,

May our flag eternally wave,

In honor of all who have served her,

In the land of the free and the brave!

Many items of clothing are blue,

From navy to the palest pastel,

It's a color that is suitable for most,

From men to the most femine belle.

Blue is the color of oceans,

Which cover most of our earth,

As a source of food and water,

They are of incredible worth.

Treasures of art and paintings,

Make use of the color blue,

Enriching our lives and our spirits,

With the qualities it seems to imbue.
