Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Yolks Slickers and Lemon Zest

yellow yolks on the kitchen floor
brighten up the tile
sunflower seeds glow in the sun
for a country mile

dandelions with their bright heads
springing up all over the yard
sunshine magic on my front porch
enticing me to bard

rain coat slicker and yellow boots
shining in the rain’s little test
the only thing that would make today  more sweet
would be a taste of lemon zest.

Gershon Wolf July 16, 2020 at 9:23 AM Such an upbeat, happy poem... You had told me that your favorite color was yellow (when I told you that my wife stared down the yellow flowers I bought her, saying they were for gravestones). And now I see how true it is. Bard on, Poet! Or should I have written, Poet on, Bard! ~ Corn-fused Caren Krutsinger July 17, 2020 at 1:47 AM All three work. Bard on Poet, Poet on Bard and Corn-fused. I am from the corn-state, just like Andrea and Brenda. All three of us were born Iowegians.

Ann Gilmour July 14, 2020 at 5:57 AM Yellow is such a happy, sunny, smiley colour and your poem has done just that, put a great big smile on my face Caren. I recently wrote a little ditty about sunflowers and they too have that same smileyness ~ delightful happy poetry ~ thank you. With kindest thoughts Ann xx Caren Krutsinger July 16, 2020 at 5:19 AM I adore yellow but ORANGE is my ultimate favorite color. And you cannot beat the 70's combination of orange, yellow and pink if you ask me.
