The hills displayed
In shades of jade
So emerald in their hue
Can take me back
To love I lack
And things that I will do

And forests deep
Their secrets keep
In shadows dappled green
The forest shade
In dell and glade
Reminds me of love's scene

The emerald isle
On mossy stile
Leads me to start anew
As I climb up
I softly sup
On pleasure through and through

The land shows rape
Through colours grape
Where daffodils once dwelt
In frost so deep
Yet while I sleep
I know the frost will melt

In turquoise blue
The shades of you
Mingle green with pride
The shades of green
In which you're seen
Bring nature to my side

And for all time
The hues of lime
Can thrill me to the core
In paints of dill
The brook and hill
Can leave me wanting more

Life all around
In nature found
Beauty to soon be seen
And I shall toast
My lovely host
In  many shades of green





Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Kethry,
I've decided to come on over and be with you again.
Your true colors are too beautiful to be encased in a poem.
Please don't tell any of these people how truly screwed up I am.

Sudhir,
beloved one, thank you for quoting my words back to me....they sound so much better coming from you.  

SmartChick,
thanks for the great, I appreciate.  

Sunshine,
actually my muse doesn't sleep for long, Marge simply notched it up to manic again...and for that encouragement is it's own punishment.  

Roger,
I am sending you a private email. A sort of Hitchhikers guide to these blue pages. But one thing you should know is this site supports graphics.

Keth darling sister of my heart

Okay, that's it, I've read this 5 times now and it reveals more to me each time so now I'm really Green with envy. So if it’s all the same to you darling girl, you can stop winning now. Mmmmm, I'll make you pay darling I'll let the witch of the web out see if I don’t. Of let loose the wench, either of them will cause trouble.

It's fabulous

      
Love and warm stuff
As always

Ah, but if she hadn't gotten you started, as you put it, look at all we would have missed.

Thanks Marge...for pressing the "starter".

This one reminded me of one of my own, Gaelach Glas (Irish Green). It sounded so similar...it was a good read!

Hey Marsha,
I don't expect to win...I only expect to stay in the game until the final quarter.  

Marge,
to make you jubilant is my greatest desire. *HuGS*  

Sandra,
Just when I think it can't get any better...you come along. Thanks.  

Juanita,
so cool you could make it across, now get busy and post your own. Mush! Mush!  

James,
You're are right I am a slow starter, .but once my motor's running...vroom I'm gone     or maybe that should be swoosh...wipeout.

Lady Sofia,
I don't remember reading yours  but I would like to if you could re-post I would appreciate it.  

mirror man,
thank you for your fine reflection.  

Kethry
