The shine of the sun

Yolk so sweet

The glow of the buttercup

early rise in the sky

The high-vis sign of safety

lemon and blonde

The morning dunkable toast nectar

lush like honey

The feeling of uncertainty

ochre so bright and bold

The stripes of the pollenators

welcoming the day

The heart of the fire
