I wrote this yesterday, 8/15/17.
Button up and button on
Today is yellow birthday
Did you hear the tears last night
Dripping into a yellow pool
That juxtaposes sass and smiles
With tired, aching, dry eyes
Yellow, sallow skin
Help
Yourself to a piece of cake
Smile and reminisce into the lens
Then drive through yellow-lit fields
A color grim and grateful
A color faint yet strong
On this dear yellow birthday
I’m reminded where I belong
