E. Pearl Anderson Poet Rhyme

The Color Yellow

Dear Lord, you open my day
With a soft yellowish-glow
Filtering through morning’s mist
Rising from valleys below

Your sun moves from east to west
Radiating energy and light
Illuminating the world
Providing visual delights

The soft yellow roses abloom
With fragrant aromas found—
Marigolds in their deep hues
And buttercups all around

A walk through golden grain
As fields ripen in season
Goldenrod waving in breeze—
All seem to have a reason

Yellow appears in pigments
Coloring cars of our past;
Painting houses for our homes;
Tonka trucks for child that last

As eventide closes the day
With sun over horizon
Still your yellow-color glows
Upon the sky with reflections

Dear Lord, you close my day,
As the moon beams from above
And the galaxy of stars
Display you e’er present love

    -E. Pearl Anderson
