Mellow Gold Music
What should I name this poem?
The music of life is red as a rose
Rich and vibrant and strong
a river of joy that pulses and flows
through my heart like a powerful song
How can a color such as blue be used
to describe such a melancholy feeling?
This fact has made me feel very confused
because this color gives me a sense of healing.
Spunky and bright like me is Yellow
Powerful like a bold gold soul
A calm cool color that’s oh-so mellow
Those are the colors of me, Nicole
the colors of me (from your last line!)
Olivia Newton-John Have You Never Been Mellow (Live 1975)
