Shade and Hue: Blue by Laura Vaccaro Seeger
There are many a shade and hue of BLUE.
Baby blue.
The soft hue of a baby blue blanket where a puppy sleeps.
There is the blue of blueberries plunking into a bucket, the deep blue of a butterfly in high summer, and the many blues of a sea wave as it breaks on the shore.
In the boy's bed the boy and dog sleep through the deep blue of midnight. They slosh through the icy blue of a snowy twilight, fly a bright blue kite high against a soft blue sky, and run from the deep, angry blue of a summer storm cloud..
Old Blue as the dog, now aged, on his worn blue blanket, the True Blue of the boy as he cradles his old and sick dog, and the lonely blue, as his misses his dog, now gone.
And one bright day, there's a new dog to walk with him along the ocean's edge....
