Yellow

yellow usually a warning color when paired with black I had always resented yellow. a sickening, overbearing shade searing itself into my eyes then she walked into the room. yellow. it was all I could see. it was as if she had bathed in sunbeams showered in sunflowers dipped her toes in pure light. she had pulled strips from the midnight sky and woven them across the crown of her head the sun and the sky had come alive in glorious black and yellow not as a threat but as a blessing. a warm glow rather than a burning flame.
