Notes About The Poem

Imagine Yourself As A Color Poetry Contest

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

I Am Green

My skin is light olive-toned with green or green-yellow
undertone and the veins on my wrists appear mostly
green, the color associated with natural world, like
plants, trees, grass symbolizing life, growth and energy.
 
I am the color of living life, feeling incredibly alive with 
energy and excitement to explore, discover, experience,
create, learn to grow emotionally and spiritually to evolve.  

I am the color of wealth, like the striking emeralds, sparkling
peridot, and money to meet the needs of ordinary people or
to magnify the status and self-worth of the rich and famous.

The vibrancy of your green is noteworthy! Filled with life, perhaps dripping with jewels (in lovely tones of green). Congrats, Marilene!

Thank you Anne-Lise! My apology for the lateness of my response. You're not envious, more of a kind soul. Hugs, M.
