Blue and Gold

Blue and Gold

A Poem by T. Edana Talbott


















A father, blue and gold.

A soul, both calm and bold.

A fighter, working to the bone.

A genius, though you may not know.

A hero, with a heart that glows,

Blue and gold, blue and gold.


An angel, tough and  jolly.

A savior, when my mind was foggy.

A spirit, shining shades so blinding,

Blue and gold, blue and gold.


My love for you as true and old,

As the beautiful colors

Blue and Gold.

Author's Note

T. Edana Talbott
This poem was written as a Christmas (2014) present for my father - I wanted to express in words how much he meant to me and how much I appreciate all he is and all he's done in my life. The "blue and gold" references his favorite football team, the Chargers. He truly is one of my heroes.
