Analysis of Midnight Blue
Elizabeth Lacy 1964 (Denver)
Teary shades of Midnight Blue unseen
Sorrows grasping the depth of her core
Burning glimpses caress her dying soul
Loneliness succumbs the aging darkness
Slipping forever into midnights fury of sadness
Graciously etched blues are abounds of her peaceful tear.
