the blue between

Blue is the colour,
That separates her from another.
It is by these tides,
That she must abide.

Blue is the shade,
Before which the questions are laid.
What might have been or could have been,
Who's to know that which cannot be forseen?

Blue is the continual flow,
Of prose that sets a heart aglow.
It is the best gift that she can endow,
For all else is disallowed.

Blue is a reminder of a love that quietly exists,
A love that may never be known, but will always persist......
As a reflection only seen,
In infinity, that is the blue between.

for lack of any thoughts....

Some folks like to get away,
Take a holiday from the neighborhood.
Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood.
But I'm takin' a Greyhound on the Hudson River line.
I'm in a New York state of mind.

I've seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines.
Been high in the Rockys under the evergreens.
I know what I'm needin', and I don't wanna waste more time.
I'm in a New York state of mind.

It was so easy livin' day by day
Out of touch with the rhythym and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, the Daily News.

It comes down to reality, and it's fine with me cause I've let it slide.
I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside.
I don't have any reasons.
I left them all behind.
I'm in a New York state of mind.
