Patron Saint of All Things Blue

Rain clouds and Hyacinth,
to name just a few,
I am the patron of all things blue.
Caribbean waters, sapphires, and you
I am the patron of all things blue.

Your heart breaks at the pain,
And so I feel it too,
For I am the patron of all things blue.
This saint’s a bit flawed,
But that much you knew,
Yet, still I’m the patron of things that are blue.

I once died in my sadness,
For I’ve been there too,
Now resurrected as the Patron of Blue.
God promises freedom,
I promise to pray for you
I, the Patron Saint of all things blue.
