Anyone Color 4 ?

“Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you
and ALL the things you do
They are yellow too”

Coldplay’s brilliance
Their song
mingled with a dandelion’s
roadside theatrics
is you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Potent, energizing, emotive
is saffron in its dazzle;
while the lemon tree
tantalizes with zest
Salivating for its ripe fruit
Dressed like a fashionista
with dripping yellow ochre jewels

A stark presence;
signaling the gathering
of children, boarding
Taking them to destinations
to learn the colors
of our world

Golden molten hues
A burning globe,
furious and hot from afar...
but
emanating light and warmth
Hanging from the bluest skies,
its fairy wand of photosynthesis
Blessing all things living

The shiny rubber coat
and sunshine umbrella
donned by fun-loving tiny beings
dancing ‘neath the rain

The stunning beauty and wonder
of yellow canaries
Whether trilling from the branch
or being mined for its clarity and illustriousness
Both priceless entities
of creation

A ribbon of hope
lovingly tied 'round
the old oak tree
Return to us safe
from warring across the sea

Daisies and daffodils,
mums and more
The yellow brick road
leading to wishes' door

A Texas Rose which proudly blooms;
while Big Bird of Sesame
reclines in baby’s room

My dingy car from pollen fallout
or the cross skull bones
pasted on the bright radiation plaque
Buoys and triangular signs
Caution of danger, or slippery when wet

A crime scene's banner
Unmistakable presence
of something gone awry

Japan’s banner of courage
Egypt’s mourn for their dead
For many it symbolizes peace
but often, it’s the Beatle’s song in my head

However, today
with the song of Coldplay
I think of you
Dandelions and fairy dust
in all yellow hues
Yes, " Look at the stars
LOOK how they shine for you"
Our brilliant Brooke
and your family too.
