Black and Blue went up a hill
to see what they could see.
Black asked Blue, if at times she
ever wanted to be another color.
“Oh yeah, said Blue, “Lots of times
I’d love to be a bright, bright yellow.”
“You’re kidding,” said Black, “Not me
and lately you’re noticed, I matter.”
At the top they ran into Red – and they
asked him if he was happy to be Red.
“Yes, yes,” said
Red, “I only want to be Red.
Did you ever notice, I always get the blond?”
Blue said, “You guys are typical men. I’d love
to be any color: Yellow, green, brown, whatever.”
Black and Red both responded, “Women!”
“No” said Blue, with a smile. “Just smart.”
