Blue
The color of the sky
The color some people's eyes
It's everywhere
Though some people don't even care
Seeing colors is a gift
One some people take for granted
We live in a world that's full of blue
Full of sadness and despair
But if only we could look around
And see that there is much more here
Than the sorrow associated with blue
There's a world full of other colors
Of hope for better days
We all wish for a yellow day
Filled with sunshine and joy
Sometimes it might go the other way
If we could truly be grateful for what we have
We'd understand that that yellow day is here
We were just in such a cloud of blue
We weren't able to see it until it was gone
Until we chose to remove the burdens of our life
It gets hard regardless of our attitude
But trying to be the happiest you can
Will bring that yellow back right into your hand
The next time you want to give it all up
Remember that that yellow day is nearly here
You just have to wait a little longer
And your reward will come shining down

Trying and failing time and time again to regain control over his life despite his problems, he must learn to confront them: to accept himself and what he has in order to move forward. Warning, triggering content will be in this novel. I will be exploring sexual themes and drug abuse.

In the 20th century America reinvented itself. Devastated by depression, scarred by war, rocked by a revolution, Americans banded together to preserve their country and their freedom. They had faith in themselves, faith in one another, and for those who believed…faith in God. This novel tells the story of one American who lived through those turbulent years….years that would test his character and the character of a nation. For Josh Sanders it begins in 1935. A star athlete in school, pro football is a ticket out of poverty during the Great Depression; but when his father, a WWI veteran, is killed during a robbery, Josh’s spirit is broken, and with it his boyhood dream. To honor his father Josh joins the war effort in 1942, distinguishing himself as a fighter pilot, until a fateful decision near the end of the war changes the course of his life once again. But many years later, after a stint as a boxer and a failed marriage, Josh finds his calling…at a time when the country is at war with itself. The year is 1968. King and Kennedy have been killed, race riots are breaking out, and Vietnam has become an albatross, causing massive protests across the country. In the streets of San Francisco Josh watches a crowd of students march for peace. As a veteran he’s conflicted, toward the war and those who oppose it. But when he encounters Rosy Goldin, a spirited young protester in need of help, a voice from the past calls him to action. His good intentions are soon tested when Rosy falls in love with the fugitive anti-war activist Erick White, a young man determined to oppose the war at all costs, against the wishes of his own father. Fearful of what happens to Rosy, Josh confronts Erick, unwilling to be part of his plan to escape…until he meets the boy’s father. A high-powered criminal attorney, Karl White is also a flag-waving patriot demanding that his son follow the law. But as White makes his case Josh is jolted by a painful war-time memory, a crisis of conscience that will soon determine the fate of Rosy Goldin and Erick White.
