A colour of the spectrum
Located between blue and yellow
Poor, green, not as fresh as blue
Or as pretty and bright as yellow
Yet, it's the colour associated with
Springtime, youth, hope and envy.
Ahh, beware the green eyed monster
Jealousy, verdant grows within.
Green the most important colour of Islam
Celtic Ireland, verdant paradise
Camouflage, hide, conceal, all green
Youth hides it's innocence
Innocence, shaken on the boughs
Malachite, verdant, verdigris
How odd this colour means so much to so many
Europe and the US attributes the colour to the Devil sickness & death
But spring is life
Not death
Green for go, green for environment,for
Death, malaise, poison, British racing green
Such a small colour
Such large meaning
Beware the colour green
It has too many meanings, to many connotations
