Shepherds pie

Shepherds' pie

I need to repaint the kitchen
so I am off to B and Q
to find myself light yellow
or a similar type of hue.

But so far I cannot find it
Yellow isn’t now a word
it’s now Sun kissed mellow
or some Type of lemon curd.

There’s a Hint of dandelion
and a Sniff of buttercups.
A tin of Home-made custard
and Canaries of deluxe.

What the hell is Beach in summer?
There is no label I can see
I need some common yellow
not some Bloody honey bee.

I asked the man who worked there
as confused he was as I
The one that looked my yellow
Was called Mothers shepherd pie!
