When I was a little girl, my mother always dressed me in blue. She said it brought out the blue in my eyes. I wore dresses all the time and my hair was pulled back into two ponytails.
When I was a young woman, I wore browns and greens and blacks. On the farm, I wore jeans. I bought pantsuits in the city and wore them to college classes and to teaching. My hair took no fussing except for keeping it trimmed above my collar.
But now that I am old, I find blue creeping back into my wardrobe once again. I've rediscovered the joy of skirts. My hair, though streaked with gray and silver, reaches to the middle of my back.
Cycles of life and appearance.

Far out in the ocean the water is as blue as the petals of the loveliest cornflower, and as clear as the purest glass. But it is very deep too.
(The Little Mermaid, Hans Christian Andersen)

I love the different names of blue.
Two of the most popular shades, royal and navy, derive from human institutions.
But midnight, cornflower, blueberry, ocean, sky, and periwinkle come from nature.
We are surrounded by blue.

Blue and Grey.
Colours which lie close and comfortable to each other in shades.
Blue shirts and grey suits.
Grey suits and blue ties.
But oh!
What a bloody difference between the two once!
There is no civility in red death.

Blue's a nice color, don't get me wrong. I like blue, but blue and green, oh yeah! When I see colors like teal, aquamarine and verdigris, I just get a hormone surge.

In the Spring, we drive up to Brenham or over to San Antonio or even to Waco. The destination doesn't really matter. The reason for our journey may be found on either side of the highway.
Bluebonnets. Masses and masses of bluebonnets.
Here and there we see the red spikes of the Indian paintbrushes and the yellow of the ubiquitous flowers. They add to the joy of the day.
Thank you, Lady Bird.

Blue is a feeling, but the blues is the cultural expression of a feeling rooted in African American experience.

When I think of blue, the blue-steel gleam of a gun barrel comes immediately to mind.
Occupational hazard, I guess.
Red and all its shades go with blood on the victim and evidence. Once yellow was the live oak pollen on a suspect's shoes.
I don't think I've ever used the colors of magenta or fuschia or puce or periwinkle or verdigris in any of my stories.
Verdigris. Hm. Maybe I should expand my palette.
