Poetry: Green

Oh to be the type of green
that stays green through the frost,
when the ground is white and
branches are heavy with Winter’s weight

Brown red orange,
the colors of fall
most greens do fade
retracting in the cold air

Freezing to the warm summers sun
to be green in all seasons,
fresh to the touch
ever holding the color of LIFE!
