Blue Blue Of The Day Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Blue blue of the day
From the night of leaving
Sunshine in the ray
Of my summer grieving
As the autumn now falls
On to all the colors
And the coldness calls
When the wind hollers

Blue blue and departing
Now the day is deep
As the autumn is starting
From its tinctures leap
And the shadow’s growing
On to silhouettes dark
When eve sun´s glowing
With its golden spark

Blue blue then my dreams
And my heart is beating
What the darkness streams
As the day is bleeding
Falling rays of sunshine
On to the endless dark
Of dancing line to line
Once in summer did spark

Blue blue of the day
From the night of leaving
Sunshine in the ray
Of my summer grieving
As the autumn now falls
On to all the colors
And the coldness calls
When the wind hollers
