A crown of flowers

Behind our sand dune

I found pink daisies

But I had to cross

the river mouth

For smiling orange poppies

Towards the cliffs

I found six shades of green

One more color

Played hide-and-seek

Until the incoming tide

Whispered, check the cave -

Knee-deep in foamy waves

Yellow beach sunflowers

Jumped into my basket �"

The color palette now complete,

At last I can craft

Your crown of flowers.

Thanks E!
Yes, the yellow also bothered me....I wanted to use a black background, but did not know how to do that...I will rope in one of my teenagers ;)
