WHEN IS A NOT A?

We live in a funny world that loves to change things, help the children who grow up confused.

Why do people say

they are feeling blue

when they do not

look blue at all,

in fact they look

like you and I

not the shade of blue

except maybe in the eye.

Then there are those

that insist

they are

under the weather,

well no better place

than out in the sun

or in some lands

a bit of rain on dry soil can be fun.

What about those

that have lettace bodies

say they are green with envy

I am sure they must want to be noticed.

Me I'm as white as a sheet

and as honest as the day is long

you can see right through me

but folks think I'm half gone?

somethings wrong?
