green














it's st.patty's day
and i can't go
without saying
"top o' the mornin' to ye"

hope you enjoy the wearin'
of the green
even if you aren't irish

better yet, enjoy
green
for just being green
the melting together of
yellow and blue;
the symbolic meaning of something
new

for tufts of grass
and tulip leaves
emerging through
winter's bonnie blanket

  3. I love green too! :) and i love this quote by Georgia O' Keeffe about color.

    "I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for."
