Green

Green is the color of Summertime

In multilayered folding shades

Wrapped around her earth-toned hues

Encapsulating nature's glories.

 

The willow weeps her silent sadness

Dogwoods yelp in bursts of bloom.

The subtle pine stands evergreen

As if too stubborn to submit

To seasons as they come and go,

Reaching out to Winter snow

And Summer rains with equal joy;

To sigh and comfort every breeze.

 

Breezes float and waters flow

And sunlight touches tender seed

To blast forth with her flood of green

And spring to life where once was void.

 

Green is life... and life is green...

The guiding symbol of rebirth...

The road to true fidelity...

The color of the eyes of God.
