And So the Blue

And So the Blue

 

Then,  a suburban girl,

a front counter drugstore clerk.

You were older, bold and wild.

 

And when your father hit you,

you'd smile,

and lift your chin a little  higher.

 

I loved your defiance.

 

The Ct. River led us.

Its' silent banks,

Its' water roads, 

Bathing our feet

In its' cool, forgiving flow.

 

And so the blue,

And so the green,

And so the crickets,

And so the evening,

Soft as dream.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kathy Keena

Don't let the blue be anymore than a sky to reach for, lest it drag you down. Stay strong! ~ Sara

Wonderful writing in this tale of one who is strong of nature...

Be always safe,
Karen

Kathy, each word and phrase here counts, the spareness of the telling making the greater impact, a finer picture.
