Green, In Paris

I'm walking under green trees in Paris.
Up, is a panoply of light, of green.
A green bird has escaped
and sings from sap-filled twig.
A tramp in green begs from a seat.
I see his money bag is green.

On Metro, and I am green to system.
Has my ticket green to be?
A bride comes forth on train
in white, with foliage spray
in all the colours of green known -
the best and brightest seen today!
