Mandy Tams The Golden Girl Poet Verse

Yellow

Contest entry: Pocketful of dreams


The room was bright my favourite colour
 Large airy and yellow
It grew smaller as I walked round
 And there was a yellow fellow.

Through a yellow door into a smaller room
So small I nearly couldn’t fit in.
Then a yellow mouse passed me 
Banging a spoon and making a din.

Through a yellow tunnel I suddenly burst forth
To find I was the yellow trumpet of a daffodil
I used to like yellow once
But now I’m feeling quite ill

The yellow black stripes of a bumble bee
Headed for my flower
I tried to move my trumpet away 
But didn’t have the power

I fell to sleep in a yellow bed
My quilt all yellow too
I found I was suffering Jaundice 
So you looked yellow too.
