The Journey Hues of Blues No Title T'is I Dance of the Eagles Life's Castles Fading Dreams Hush-Hush
" Hues of Blues "
Hues of Blues in this bright morning sun,
A
song like a thought, remaining unsung.
Half
steps up the scale, a last breath,
Fading
softly, tremolo, then death.
Leaving
a surprise ending, out of tune
For
those who listened in the room.
Hues
of Blue, from sharp to flat,
A
melody, familiar, easy to forget.
An
attempt of exuberance, fading out,
Overshadowed
by a blue, blue cloud.
The
rhythm, driving, the song remains
Cruelly
leading through the measure’s ends.
Hues of Blue, woven in our unsung song
Dampening ecstasy, our triumph gone.
Expectancy mocked but somehow natural,
Like spring time with the promise of fall,
There is wisdom in those hues of blues,
Memories of unsung songs by me, by you.
