You have to edit style.css file of your theme. Do the following addition in style.css:

#menu-menu li a {
color: blue;
}

Using this code you can show the post in Horizontal sequence :

function post() {
    $args = array(
        'showposts' => $num,
        'numberposts' => 5
    );
     $results = get_posts($args);
    if ($results) {
      $counter = 0;
      echo '<ul>';
      foreach ($results as $result) {
        echo '<li class="item">';
        echo '<h3><a href="'.get_permalink($result->ID) . '">'.$result->post_title.'</a></h3>';
        echo '</li>';
      }
      echo '</ul>';
    }
  }
