the drapes were blue
like the carolina sky.
the carpet.
the bedspread
on each
single bed
two feet apart.
the porcelain lamp
with a wide brim shade.
blue
not unlike a robin's egg.
the big chair where her
husband sat
when he was alive.
his eyes were blue.
blue was everywhere.
the flowers,
the suit he was buried in.
his favorite shoes,
suede,
were blue too.
