Blue notes

WL Schuett

Dark smokey 

jazzy blues 

 

Heartbreak music 

or music drenched in romance 

 

laughter drifting 

out to the 

neon haze of the street 

 

dusty reds 

deep river greens 

midnite blue 

 

reflecting up from a 

light rain 

the sounds of many 

dancing feet 

 

a tenor sax wailed 

the night alive around them 

amazing blue notes 

hot , close exhilarating 

 

Bluesman Jazzman 

in the dark pleasure 

of one more dance
