Butterfly Yellow


Happy and cheerful
Brightens your day

Shines in warm sunshine
With good things to say

Brimming with such energy
Canaries singing or buzzing bees

Drawing attention inspiring hope
Finding the positive in what it sees

Cautions to proceed with care
Head uplifted to solve a problem

Yet creative optimistic inspiring
Not defeated or overcome by them

A touch of light to cheer you on
As a butterfly floating… is joyful yellow

Reflections on Popsicles

• Approach life with interest, flavor, and zest
• Treasure those memories of special moments frozen in time
• Cold hearts lead to a dreary life but warm hearts provide cheer to many
• True friendship is like a taste of creamy goodness
• Live honestly that your true colors reflect integrity
• Sharing compassionately arises from brokenness
• Do not allow frosty responses to dim your peace
• Be your positive and add color and flavor to life
• When coldness invades, allow warmth to savor goodness
• God can melt the most cold and stubborn heart
• Seek what refreshes and strengthens you and give thanks
• Missed opportunities can result from frozen indecision
• Let go of worries and enjoy good fruits of life
• Your center support is God’s strong presence
