GREEN CONFETTI

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Springtime’s hum appears~ steel teeth gnaw the thirsty grass, spits green confetti. Scent of violence lingers, fresh-cut and gasoline sweet.

I always fight getting out and doing it...but love to see the lawn well trimmed and orderly. Angels hate mess. And their loving presence on a property is a blessing. Green Confetti! Wonderful image.

What a fun write to read with a fun picture. Yep, the lawnmowers will start up soon to make "GREEN CONFETTI." Enjoy your fun day writing away...........
