Green Free Writing

Green as a new leaf
Green as in envy
Green as your emerald eyes
So green they hypnotize

Green as a celebration
Esteem and anticipation
Green as fat frog on log
With a new mating call

Green in a race
Green in a face
Green a happy day
Green my nappy faith

Green an invitation
Green a salutation
Green as a new truth
Green in love of youth.

Such a vibrant color! You have woven the hues and shades quite amazingly touching on so many things throughout your poem Karen, like a tapestry, all in threads of green! Awesome! :) <3

"Green as a new leaf." This is my favorite one. To me, it's a new beginning, a positive outlook. There's so many ways to describe this color, and you've expressed it so beautifully. Many wonderful blessings to you, Karen. :) Hugs, Brandy

Sotto that is kind of you. But I think you see what you are in me as a mirror. I am not brilliant but I admit to having a passion for poetry. We both love it and so writing comes with challenges but we meet them as we are given ability by God. Hugs

Whoa you’ve highlighted and touched all aspects of green seamlessly! I love that. Especially the opening lines and also how you’ve written “‘so green they hypnotize” ah something about green is so inspiring and deep! Very well delivered with exquisite rhymes.
