Red, White, and Blue

Red,
White, and Blue


Oh, to be read,
To be lily pure white,
And true blue.

That is my wish,
Isn’t it you?

Red blood courses my veins,
White pale skin without its hue.
Not a dark, blueblood,
blue.


If I were an aristocrat,
Wouldn’t know what to do.
Would you?

Red complements white,
White complements blue.
Blue on red
clashes.

What am I to do?

Red sun on the horizon,
White clouds, too.
Set into an azure blue sea,
Wouldn’t you?

Red is my embarrassment,
White is my foggy view.
Blue is my sorrow,
When I lose you.

Primary colors fire my life,
Not a tricolor, one nation,
Point of view.

You thought something different,
Didn’t you?

Poem Artwork

Substitute "White" for the blank spaces. The html police wouldn't let my contrasting background reveal the white text. Sorry. Visit my site for the real thing.

I read it without thinking white then I re read it thinking about the white and it was like reading it for the first time. Does that make any sense to you? Likely not, sometimes when I try to explain how I feel about something I kind of get lost. Guess what I really want to say is I LIKE IT. THANK YOU - Vic

The flag of the Russian Federation is red, white, and blue. So communism is alive and well. :)
