Emerald green that shines on
gleaming green jewel bug
Algae green of the serene pond
And there swim the shoveler ducks
Harlequin green from areca leaves pinnate
Softly grins when sunrays gently penetrate
And the dark green on betel leaves
Oh ho, the deep red on tongue it leaves
Light green of the Mandevilla
That climbs high to shine bright
Mixed hues of the leaves of taro root
And turquoise green on the crystal clear Lake
O! The iridescent green hues
of peafowls whose vibrant colors ooze
off his pretty long feathers,
Do I need to apprise further?
Green paddy field glares
And sways like a girl's hair
Teal green from singing river
Accumulates minerals and delivers
Did I mention the grass green?
Hey! Isn't our earth's screen?
Raising that lustrous curtain,
unfolds vivid scene by scene
Our earth breaths through these shades of green
Without these green, there is no pleasant scenes

When I stand under a lofty tree
A too small me, I see;
And so my problems are;
Like the dust, they just flee
When I sit in the mid of my backyard,
I see the big me, too bigger than awlsnail that crawls;
And so my level of confidence is;
Like the mandevilla, it climbs up, never falls

Dancing young climber Mandevilla, wears neon green leaves,
adorning the terrace garden with its mounting thin sheaves.
Owner family water daily, the plant is healthy
when they cuddle the plant and trim old leaves, it feels happy
Whenever it perceives their presence, it does some signals
to gather their attention, if they respond, it giggles
It often hears their talking and prays for their gaieties
On a calm night, they vent about the plant and feel guilty
for not bracing flowers, thinking they didn't give right manure
Plant empathizes with their feelings, next day flower blooms
