Wearin' O' the Green

Kelly, olive, hunter, pea – Any green will do ya. On St. Paddy’s Day, in green Is how the world should view ya. Forest, avocado, teal – So many shades for choosin’. Mint, pistachio, chartreuse – Such greenness for effusin’. Army, jungle, lime and pine – Whichever one is pleasin’. Deck yourself in green today – The world will know the reason! for Francine Roberts' contest
