It is the sound of wind and rain,
of joy and pain, and of love and loss.
It is the peace amid the winds of change,
melodic notes giving hope to the lost.

It is the color of the new sky above,
whose new hues soothe you smooth all day.
Harmonic rays beam in The Color of Love
beautifully sung by the lips of Sade.

Blue In Green, or simply All Blues,
creating new hues throughout the ages.
Snazzy trumpets now play with new rules,
Flamenco Sketches of the legend, Miles Davis.

The Mercy Streets of Herbie Hancock,
Lead Me Into Love by the lovely Anita Baker.
Soul shakers move in a world of Lover’s Rock
as Sade sings another hit maker.

When I’m In a Sentimental Mood,
I like to brood to Duke Ellington’s magic sax.
I’m a li’l “jelly roll” as I move to the groove,
a li’l Dizzy Gillespie when I relax.

Joe Oliver, the King, adds his razzmatazz,
providing pizzazz with the funk in his drums.
The harmony of beats with cymbals of brass,
kickin’ back, bobbin’ my head as I hum.
