Than just a color
It’s as much an emotion
As it is a hue
Blue is the tender soul
Of sky, flower and ocean
And the blessing and bane
Of me and you
Dye of desperation
Paint of despair
Wistful wash of wisdom
And the pale shade of prayer
A name for a pet
A descriptor of sea
Four letter word…Tho’
The best one that could be
It is substance, it has meaning
Is nothing, yet so many things…
All the while, tis just a color
Only a color, ...yet a color with wings

And I have known/known of a few dogs named Blue.
How funny re: dog names ;) I know someone who had a cat named Blue, and then she met a young man whose nickname was Blue...they've been happily married for quite a few years now ;)
(the cat had to be renamed Blue-Cat, to avoid confusion :P)
