BLACK   AND  BLUE


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.”
