Poetry About Green

Poetry about green follows a color into leaves, moss, fields, traffic lights, envy, spring, and the first sign that something living has returned.

Green is both symbol and sensation: growth, permission, freshness, jealousy, healing, and the soft insistence of the earth continuing.
