Emerald Green There is an reflection in my soul that is the shade of resplendent, emerald green, and while never jealousy does it hold it draws me forward as if in a dream. The most serene queen of hues, its brilliancy like one undone when looked deep into the emerald stone perchance one sees the sun. Other colors are preferred, as is blue but without emerald green to be held up to the sky by way of tree-lined horizon there'd be nothing to take my eyes from. The color of emerald in silken cloth shimmers and melds to black but with pulsation of body's hip to deep emerald green it comes back. Emerald lies deep in beautiful song one hears it in an Irishman's melody when he softly sings of his love her green eyes sustaining his rhapsody. If colors alone ever had true wealth I would ever be rich in emerald green for while never jealousy does it hold it brings me closer to heaven's dreams. ©KRJ 20 September, 1999 Sunny ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.

Now I think it's complete and what a poem you did. Her green and dark eyes Make me realize That beauty lies within Under the layers of soft and tender skin Bravo The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Oh Emerald Green....Perfect!! Beautiful!! Excellent Sunshine. I have ticked that little box Yes, I am here, but I am dead, not alive, my body goes on, my spirit has died and I though alive, feel dead inside. "Rose Petal" |

Hi Sunshine. Beautiful poem! They call Ireland "The Emerald Isle," with good reason. Glad you submitted. I got that other problem solved by the way. |

There are green eyes in my day dreams there is a sweet lass in my arms there are ruby red lips I like to kiss that brings sunshine to my life... Oh dream, Oh dream in Irish Green, where the love of my heart i'll find. .... I just love that colour, vote! Parker... |
