8.12.11 I am now yellow all over
Since I was chosen to be a Preferred Author today, I decided to write a little poem about it.

“MY YELLOW BRIEFCASE”

I sit here aglow
That one would bestow
This fine, beautiful yellow
To cover my drab stucco.

My cargo
Is far from sallow,
It’s the brightest glow
Found in the rainbow.

It was just a moment ago
I was labeled a sideshow,
But with the change of my deco,
I am now a hero!

I did not foreknow
The great ones would hallow
My substance with such a glow;
My love for them does grow.

But I must prevent my ego
To swell and mind to plateau,
Lest I hinder myself to grow;
For I will always be callow
Till the day I can fly like a sparrow.
