It is not Easy Being Yellow

“ It ain’t easy being green.” Kermit The Frog It ain’t Easy Being Yellow I push through concrete You can’t keep a good dandelion down Don’t confuse me with a happy face Yellow sometimes hides a frown You can find me in the city Yes, in the country as well Forget pushing up daisies There are stories I must tell It’s not easy finding cracks But it’s the sunshine that I seek Dandelions are tenacious Even if you think we’re weak Yep, I push through concrete You can’t keep a good dandelion down Don’t confuse me with a happy face Yellow sometimes hides a frown On a grey and lonely road I’m the only colour you might see I’m the embodiment of purpose Take time to look at me Don’t confuse me with some weed Other flowers aren’t as strong Beautiful filled with purpose Above the concrete I belong A parking lot at Walmart Or some deserted highway I push my way through concrete It seems I’m made that way Let me float above the road As my yellow turns to white Yes this is my happy face Amidst this world I find delight.
