Ever green and Ever blue

Ever Green and Ever Blue
Two spruce trees ever green and ever blue
planted side by side when they built their first home.
His favorite color green for growing things.
Her favorite color blue like robin’s eggs and sky.
Two spruce trees ever green and ever blue grew gardens.
His to nourish them with grapevines, peas, and fresh rhubarb.
Hers to inspire hearts with lavender lilacs, Hydrangeas, and forget me nots
Young Saplings grew beneath the trees as their family sprouted
Two spruce trees ever green and ever blue grew taller and stronger.
Their branches intertwined like their lives.
Winds blew and storms brewed,
They stood closer as life’s trials took their toll.
Two spruce trees ever green and ever blue grew older.
One started leaning in
He hobbled on a cane.
She took the extra weight.
Two spruce trees evergreen and ever blue,
One soul left to another plane.
Two spruce trees stand.
He is with her still ,ever green and ever blue.
