George Seal Poet Rhyme

I AM GREEN

    I love the colour of my skin,
    Au naturel suave evergreen.
    From head to toe, and deep within,
    Each part of me, feels so serene.
    Even the bristles, on my chin,
    Tonsured daily, smooth shaven clean.
    The only difference, with my twin,
    While I am green, he's tangerine.
    Hereditary, our kith and kin,
    Diverse within the human gene.

Andrea Dietrich August 24, 2025 at 11:30 PM George. Sorry to say I didn't really get your meaning but I just loved this poem. Are you a tree, an alien, or what??? Haha the tangerine twin really threw me off! Congratulations in my contest Andrea Dietrich August 25, 2025 at 6:19 PM It's ok you interpreted it your own way. It came off sounding cool George Seal August 25, 2025 at 11:56 AM Hi Andrea, thank you for your comment on my poem. My understanding, was to imagine I was a different colour of my choice. And relate what I believed, I would feel about the colour, The last two lines I am sure, would indicate I was a human being. My warmest regards to you. George.
