Agreed with others - but will add...
White smoke is burning water/coolant, blue smoke is burning oil.
It can be a little difficult sometimes to tell the difference between the two, especially if there isn't a lot of it.
Not foolproof - but if in doubt, you can hold a cold beer (or beverage of your choice) over the exhaust while it's doing this - if condensation immediately starts building up and dripping off, it's most likely water you're burning. If it doesn't do that and just gets a little greasy, then it's oil.
It's more likely that it's burning oil (unless you've done a rebuild). If that's the case, it's one of those things that you have to decide on how long you want to live with it.
If it's water you're burning, you really want to address that one sooner than later.
