Array ( [sid] => 4399 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => green [time] => 2002-09-28 16:45:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => betrayal is green a bitter sad sting
green is the emerald in my
grandmother's ring
cracked but solid she gathers me tight
when i am uncertain
what's wrong
or what's right

velvet green
on an overstuffed chair
i smell green
in the rosemary air

green the tea
in front of my friend
green is constant
a world on the mend

the atlantic is green
angry and vile
green is the mean thoughts
i attempt to file

algae and forests
i find peace in there
a sense of autonomy
grace of a prayer

it can be money or envy so sharp
cactuses and thistles
that stay in my heart

it trembles like poplars
roars like fir trees
i heard in switzerland
green enveloped me

copper turns green
time rocks
back
and
forth
aurora borealis
at night
in the north

green was once
a comfort to me
it wrapped us in promises
never to be. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 196 [topic] => 21 [informant] => colette [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
