Pistachio

This green wears sweetness beautifully. 
Patience and pressure became great friends. 
Pistachio says softness can be made.
Your joy does not have to end. 

I learned from this green, laughter after grief.
You can be whole without cracking out.
Pistachio opens when it is ready. 
Leaving room for happiness to sprout. 

Pistachio is a humble shade.
It will not stress itself to be seen. 
This is the green for nourishment.
Deliberately hidden to protect its peace.
