Greens


I marvel at the color here.
Greens from pale to strong and dark
make this place peaceful for me.
Staghorn ferns with sturdy dark leaves
hang in baskets.
Pathos with creamy light green
almost white
swimming in a lake of cool greens.
A carpet of English ivy with its
dark green leaves
still has variations
newborn leaves with a yellow-green tinge
youngsters now shiny green
oldsters who dress in the darkest green-black robes.
I see what others don't.
This green place is a symphony of color and bearer of peace.
