The lush and tall grass grows, this fervent color every year
Only to wilter away into light beiges and darker browns

The brightness, yet deep beauty of a radiant, emerald stone
I remember being this color, in middle school, break ups and whispers among friends and enemies not cool

Ocean's with algae, intensified darkerΒ  greens, against blue lit skies
Green sea turtles swimming, on their journey to no surprise
Spring brings brilliant, greenery all around, expanding it's touch from the trees to the ground

The color of bills and billions are made, we cash out, we cash in, or put it in the safe(bank)
Diced cucumbers and green peppers, long onions, for our salads, some lettuce, or leafy spinach incorporates this great palette
Green eyes, green signs, green-withΒ  jealousy or envy, we despise
All of this talk of green, has gotten to me
I think I will lay down and take a green nap
