Green Tongues

Green Trees to calm our nerves.
Fresh Air to soothe our lungs.
Dampness to cool our heads
and Comfort to fuel our tongues.

Branches to free our notions
and storm clouds to feed our soul.
Black rain to fill us up again
and raped wind to make us whole.

Thanks Jessica. I'm glad you liked it. I added another 4 lines to this and reposted it with the title "Old". They changed the meaning of the poem all together although my friend says he liked it better without the added 4 lines. LOL Trevor
