How Yellow is Your Yellow Pad?


How yellow is your yellow pad?
Does it tell you hard work will pay off
or cheating is always an option?

How brown is your brown envelope?
Does it tell you to take one step at a time
or all the requirements will come destroying you down?

How grey is your grey matter?
Does it tell you the solutions to problems
or tells you to just chill out?

How white is your white lie?
Does it tell you some things are better left unsaid
or selfishness will ruin the innocent?
How black is your blacklist?
Does it tell you lesser ink is better for the heart
or wrath has overtaken you?

How red is your red herring?
Does it tell you hope is still lurking around the corner
or covering up is the only way for your smile to not fade?

How silver is your silver lining?
Does it tell you the best is yet to come
or you’re settling for what’s less?

How blue is your blue sky?
Does it tell you the Love is new every morning
or the weather is never trustworthy?

How green is your green light?
Does it tell you to go, for there is hope
or stop for you’ve had enough?

Go…
Still go…
The colors may fade every once in a while.
But there are so many colors still waiting to burst to make your life wonderful.
Start with green: Go.
Then end with yellow.
Buy a higher quality yellow pad for your many, many assignments.
