Green

Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises.” – Pedro Calderon de la Barca Absorbing sunlight to a green synergy Blends in chloroplast creating energy. Celery cucumber in salad bowl green Deep foliage of forests, in dark unseen Enveloped handiwork of Supreme God Freedom in green, it's what cities applaud. Grass is always green on the other side Hope returns the spring, winter modified Ivy creeps dainty tendrils into the cracks Joshua survives , as an ecosystem backs. Kale and spinach with gourds and peas Leaves are emeralds, the treasure of trees. Mantle of soft mosses clinging hard stones Nature is unique in its greenery thrones. Our green of life , Mother Earth speaks Promise of love, our soul and spirit seeks. Queen of all colors, ferns and pine hills Rain shower sparkling, as on jade spills . Serenade blue in pale green seafoam, Trees sustain birds to make their home. Undertone of all green, farmers harvest Verdant fields encompass the farthest Weeping Willow has its own clean tears Xmas merriness disappears our fears Youth evergreen doesn't forever last Zigzag axe on our Green, a sky overcast
