Looking for Color

The all day rain and temperatures in the forty's were

 a relief from the miserable cold of the past

few weeks, but the colors were wet and gray.

I went into the archives, such as they are, and found

this image from just a few weeks ago.

I was sitting in Starbucks when I happened to

notice the buildings reflected in a cab

parked just outside the window.

The carefully designed seams where the body

parts joined each other balanced beautifully

with the robin's egg blue and red.

Sweet.
