My Favorite Color
Fizzing with excitement
Teaming with fruity flavor
Zesty and delightful
My color is beyond compare
I am a painter, and cannot imagine
Any painting without it.
She colors lilies and dragons,
leaves, and wild women’s hair
I lavish her upon a canvas with finesse
She does not hold back, and neither do I
We are exuberantly delightful.
We splash ourselves into life,
loving what comes
We are zealous zealots
Making no apologies for our actions
Not as blatant as stop signs or fire trucks
A near relative but sunnier
We need no glitter or sparkle
Our joy comes out in soul force
into the meadows in the form of tiger lilies
We are confidence, we are hope, we are delight
Beaks and legs of ducks are beholden to us
Harvest moon would be dour without us
We are glamour and excitement
We are enthusiastically and unapologetically ourselves.
