I love this little thing, Black white and blue
I love the colours, I see them as symbols
Blue for the sky on sunny days
In so many bright and sunny ways
The good things, sunny smiles, bright sunny people.

The white is for fluffy fair weather clouds
Those small everyday doubts blowing away
I don’t have a lot and they worry me not.
… summer breezes on summer days.
—–
And the black is for the bad times
The darkness of my nights when the black dog bites
When everything is dark
But I pat his head … hear him bark, take him to the local park
And I become my self again.
—–
And together they symbolise me I suppose
A lot of love, a little doubt,
Mixed in with ‘What is this all the hell about?’
They are my life
The ‘me’ The only me.
