just one seed buried
grows an ear full of kernels
multiples of maize
sustenance from hand of God
gifts of grain to feed the world

Yellow is…
daffodils blooming early
bright umbrella on the beach
pair of goldfinches nesting
busy honeybees buzzing
wind chimes tinkling on porch
classy, brassy trumpet tunes
tartness of lemon merengue pie
buttery sweet corn-on-the-cob
birthday cupcakes with candles
warm sunshine on cheeks
hugs from grand children
rainboots splashing in puddles
Yellow can put a smile on your face!
