dear world,
as you know,
sometimes
living is hard
so, i have
a special request:
when i wake up
on one of those days
please,
just love me with yellow . . .
kiss me with sunshine
to brighten my day
place daffodils and dandelions
along my way
feed me banana bread, pineapple
and corn on the cob
and always let me wear
yellow shoes to my job
give me a fluffy chick
or a duckling to hold
and money in my pocket,
doesn’t have to be gold
place ribbons of highlights
throughout my mane
to keep me from feeling
too boring or plain
give me a polka dot bikini
over skin that is tanned
and a pristine beach
covered in warm golden sand
feel free to treat me with
lemon sorbet
and a yellow lab with a frisbee
that knows how to play
later, light a candle
to quiet my mind
so it’s warm little glow
can help me unwind
give me my partner
to cuddle and spoon
or dance with romantically
under a soft yellow moon
please,
love me with yellow
cuz yellow is best
it always reminds me
how much i am blessed
