Shades of Blue.

Please don’t believe everything they tell you.

It was sky for a good while,

and then it was more artic.

Walked right into berry,

swam with indigo,

and dried off with navy.

Then things got lighter,

and it went ocean, teal, sapphire.

Went back to a little darker,

and it went lapis, cobalt, azure.

I think I’ve been every shade of blue.
