Simply Blue Poem by Zooey Lichty

Simply Blue



I saw a Young child today
so Innocent and sweet-
and wearing blue
I asked him why
he simply answered “cause I do”
I asked him what his favorite color was
he simply answered “blue”
I asked him why
he pondered the question awhile
and finally after a moment or Two
he answered “It makes me feel Loved”
I pondered his answer all Afternoon
and I looked up the feeling of blue
it simply said ‘Calmness’
Nothing about love
then a thought popped into my head
I thought it just might be
I took the book from the top shelf
so Dusty it was, for it longed had be
since anyone has read it-
especially me
then I turned to page One -O-Three
and there it was
the answer Indeed
Numbers 15: 37-41
and right by that scripture there be
a quote that was written on the day-
Nine twenty-three
and that quote simple said
“When you see blue, think of Gods love, and especially,
-his love for you”
That day I knew, why that young sweet innocent child
simply wore blue-
And from that day on
I to-simply wore blue
