A Poem by Thayne Whipple
Blue
Feb 10, 2016
Birds like peacock, parrot, jay;
Water in a sparkling bay,
Water in a sparkling bay,
Navy Angels flying team,
Edvard Munch’s famous scream,
Edvard Munch’s famous scream,
Velvet movie, sunny skies,
Little boy, and Nordic eyes,
Little boy, and Nordic eyes,
Donald’s hat, and cartoon clues,
Glacier ice, and nasty bruise,
Glacier ice, and nasty bruise,
Rhapsody and Danube song,
Crayon, tropical sarong,
Crayon, tropical sarong,
Poets say that violets are,
New York City police car,
New York City police car,
Suede shoes in that Elvis tune,
Forget-me-not, infrequent moon,
Forget-me-not, infrequent moon,
Dress clothes for US Marines,
Cookie Monster, denim jeans,
Cookie Monster, denim jeans,
Periwinkle, Smurfs so cute,
Winner’s ribbon, pin-stripe suit
Winner’s ribbon, pin-stripe suit
‘Vegas man group, butterfly
Whales, and bubbles, berry pie
Whales, and bubbles, berry pie
Skin that’s really, really cool;
Color of a swimming pool
Color of a swimming pool
Sapphires, and dresses too …
Now I’m feeling kind of blue.
Now I’m feeling kind of blue.
