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.

"Not as blatant as stop signs or fire trucks. A near relative but sunnier" "Beaks and legs of ducks are beholden to us. Harvest moon would be dour without us".You have given us a riddle with some clues in the lines above and I deduct that your favorite color is orange, a color of hope and confidence ! Great write, dear Caren

And "we" are YELLOW!!!!! I was hoping it was Neon Pale Green. I love it...like in Granny Smith apples! My favorite color is GREEN. Green grass, green money, and green with envy for people who can draw and paint like you do!
