Yellow, the gumweed
and yellow sweet clover
and yellow the sunflower heads.
Yellow the mullein
and yellow the stonecrop
and yellow the voice
in my head that says
that not everything
is possible, not everything.
Oh foolish woman
who believes in fair.
And yellow the love letters
I have not written.
And yellow the ribbon
I do not tie. And yellow
waiting in the aspen leaves.
Oh yellow, teach me, yellow.
