Yellow is a primary color
worn by
sunflowers,
a halo of petals
turning to the sky,
worn by
roses,
one thorny Julia Child
with show-stopping buttery beauty,
worn by
lemons,
as scent and flavor
in rind and pulp,
worn by
summer,
alive with light and heat
and creation’s survival.
Yellow,
one brilliant color,
purple’s complement and an
agreeable companion to red and blue.
