One blue sweater and one in gray,
my Fall security all tucked away;
both promise warm, cozy comfort.
Not a testimony to fancy living
but to the virtue of simplicity;
because it seems a bit unreasonable
to have as many as three.
Three becomes confusion,
four makes for decisions;
I’d rather go nowhere at all.
So one blue sweater and one in gray
is a wardrobe simple as can be;
because two faithful friends in life
is good enough for me.
