Poem by Eric - Another day

Was just another day we walked 

I walked along with you 

And as I felt you next to me

The sky became more blue 


The fog rolled in 

The rain came down 

It was just 

Me and you


I’ve never felt an all grey sky

was made of shades of blue 


Blue is just a color 

Seen through a human’s view 

And because dogs are color blind 

It’s nothing that they knew 


Blue is just a word we use 

Like “beauty” and like “true”

And surely we may fail if words  

Limit our point of view


If we use words 

Too much too often 

As we often do 

And fail to see

in an all grey sky 

the deepest shade of blue
