Life truly is a double-edged sword,
The grass is greener on what side of the fence?
Who knows,
But that is life …

Amethyst cries hunting in greener
Pastures where your violence lingers
Evil emerald eyes of black dreamers

Jersey cows on the outskirts.
Lounging around they idle summer days away.
Comfortable in their greener pastures.

and their house is always cleaner
but just remember

Daily my schoolbus drove through Copper Cliff.
Tiny town's tiny manicured lawns. 
'Twas the highlight of my bus trip.

Greener Grass

Black cow in green field
One eye to sky, one on ground
Through rusty red gate

Knelt with neck sideways
Reaching extending pink tongue 
For tall greener grass

love is fools paradise and a fallacy
I still stay beautiful  and hold my pride

The Vacuum Cleaner Bong

Once a hippie with a "high" demeanor
Made a big "Bong" from a vacuum cleaner
The dust he forgot
His coughing throat caught
Now there's no pot, and his face's much greener!

Premium Member a grassy side

the grass is greener
on the other side 
of
the otherworldly sidewalk
where
the glass harmonica is grassier
where
the grass doesn't grow
on 
a busy streetcar named 
apathy

Waterfall symphony, strikes
Mother Nature’s redemption!
Our side of heaven, with

Thunder Interruption

Wall shaking thunder separates me from sleep like the dawn
My dreams weave the ruckus in sensory plots and float me away
I wake with fantastic tales as the grass grows three shades greener...

half a heart,
my belongings
in this cracked
old leather case.
through greener
path on earth I
wonder this to disappear.

Where River Is, There's Life

About the grass,
Always greener
On other side.

Does river flow
Affect the growth
Makes lush of green.

Besides all that
All life attach
By the river.

Seemingly right,
As I see it
Water is life.

My bag is almost full with what I can call
a house;
I'm not prepping-
greener pastures my soul seeks....

Recital Unkind

Grass is always greener at yonder site,
Yet the jealous pangs gain might!
Bowl full of spite,Burns insides!
Septic reaches heart, mind loses insight,
Mouth turns foul, starts the disparage recites!
