yellow by Bet YeldemI wanted to lay you out in the sun
Soak up every stain
Every strain of sickness beneath the grass
Carry the burden of soil
Get my hands dirty with you
Dig in with fingernails to make room for seed
Wait for the rain to wash me
Clean in new shoots and leaves green
Blue skies and rainbows
Trusting the sun to toughen my skin
