Best Greens Poems
Greens of SpringGreens of spring
Comes in spring, bloom the greens,
Perfect hues mark flawless screens,
Tender buds now yearn to thrive,
Bees are seen humming on their hive,
Colourful butterflies anxiously flutter,
Flowers eagerly lend their nectar,
Little ones play jolly in the streets,
Sky waits for birds to fly in fleets,
Vibrant shades...

Huntress of forest gems and its lush greens,
That which rivals colors of peacock's preens,
Oft hidden in cool pools, and deeper glens,
Bold greens...

Remembering Sweet Dawns and Verdant GreensRemembering Sweet Dawns And Verdant Greens
When rose-covered days grace thy waning years
thee hast great courage to face thy great fears;
summon up thy treasures by mere thought
celebrate past life for love, all it has wrought.
Remembering sweet dawns and verdant greens
gems of youth and wonders found in...

Greens of the ForestThe greens of the forest open my mind
tantalizing me with their well-kept secrets
wowing me with their varieties and textures
refreshing me with a shiny coolness not found
in concrete landscapes or graffiti-decorated
boxcar yards. Bringing with her loveliness
side dishes of baby blue soft sky and...

Greens-RebirthGREEN, GREEN, GREEN!!!
My name is Jade Shamrock Green.
I will not eat one single green bean.
When I get mad, I turn green!
I am wearing my favorite colored green jeans.
Hypnotized by the Irish color green.
Not every green path leads to a flowing stream.
I lay on the frenzy...

Collard GreensIt's hard to find good collard greens
Where I live in New York.
You'll rarely find them hanging
Off a New York restaurant fork.
But I'm in Carolina now
So everywhere you look,
Some barbecue is being prepped
To very slowly cook.
Tonight I got to sample some
And you know what that means...

“You need to eat real greens.” Mom said.
Boyo reached for the Charms instead.
“But Ma. The box says it full...

Wearin' O' the GreensThe Saints be preserved! Begorra! Today Saint Patrick reigns!
An excuse to get the Irish blood a-coursin' through yer veins!
A time for clans with even a tad of Irish in their genes,
To celebrate the holiday with the Wearin' O' the Greens!
O'Sullivans, O'Shaughnessys, O'Reillys and O'Neils,
Will be...

The Rolling GreensThe rolling Greens seem so serene,
forests pristine in sunlight’s sheen,
tall, rounded peak, a rocky creek,
a red-tail’s beak, rodents he seeks,
an aged elm, rare in this realm,
stands at the helm and overwhelms,
small dairy farm of rustic charm,
blackflies will swarm, cows takes alarm,
dunn Whitetail deer are grazing...

Winters Greens Green trees in winter
Are like water in deserts.
The green oasis
Provides hope for the spring and
Homes for Gods’ other children.

Greens Are Ugly ThingsI can’t eat those greens
Greens are ugly things
Could you eat them, if I show you how?
I can’t eat them like a rabbit
I can’t eat them like cow
I can’t eat them like anything
I don’t want to learn how
I can’t eat those greens
Greens are ugly things
Would you...

Mirrored ReflectionsReceive
Listen
Be Still
Whispered words arriving on teardrops of the wind
They call to me
Embracing me so that I may exhale
For a moment in time
I look down to see the child woman curled up on my lap
Quietly dreaming
I stroke her sleep dampened hair and
Caress her cheek gently...

Watching the Sunset In MauiPictures shared over the airwaves
Palm trees giving ever so gently
To tropical breezes are captured
As our forever moment in time.
With each sunrise comes the
Rich greens, soothingly calming blues
And gently comforting whites.
A breathtaking scenery of a canvas
Of unimaginable creation.
With each setting sun comes
Enriched hues of the primaries.
Blended...
