The color yellow, always wrapped ‘round my heart.
Guards against chill, keeping me warm.
Giving out hugs whenever it’s heavy.
Seeing the relationship with life I have formed.
The color itself can be seen in a feeling.
Deepening happiness as the sun bathes my face.
A bowl of sweet kiwis on a fresh Spring evening.
Long country drives when I forget time or place.
Building a space for my heart to go roaming.
I take it all in as the moon does the day.
Breathing in, breathing out, I love its simplicity.
The color in my soul helping me break away.
When life hits me hard and I’m stressed or I’m lonely,
Feeling lost in a world with its big lion roar,
I look to my heart and seek through my memory,
Grasping on to that bright yellow hope once more.
