Green

Lily McPherson

Green is a strong expression of sour skittles

It is the seaweed wrapping around your salmon sushi

It is the salad on my plate at the dinner table

Green is the enchanted trees swaying in the wind

It is the grassy field where the majestic horses gallop in

It is the fern knocking at your window in the rain

Green is the noisy grasshoppers keeping you awake during the night

It is the frogs springing through the trees

It is the preymantis prancing through the woods

And that’s why green is my favourite colour
