Challenge: Write a poem using yellow

There once was a disgruntled old fellow
"I don't like these colors" he bellowed
So just out of spite,
he mixed in some white
Thus increasiag the brightness of Yellow

There once was creative old fellow
Who said his dessert was too mellow
So adding some sticks
From a box of toothpicks
He stiffened the squares of his Jell-O.

There once was orchestra fellow
Who ate only deserts colored yellow.
To his conductor's dismay,
He ate as he played,
His jiggling yellow Jell-O cello.
