Green
This is a response to Kasu (small wounds) and her prompt chromatic linked below..
…
The song that comes to mind when I think green
I love the forest and the northern lights more than I love people.
I could write love letters to nature constantly.
Maybe this is why most of my love poems involve nature in some shape or form
English Translation:
I will leave you notes
Underneath your door
Under the singing walls
Near the place where your feet pass
Hidden in the holes of your couch
And when you're alone for a moment
[Chorus]
Pick me up
Whenever you want
Kiss me
Whenever you want
Pick me up
Whenever you want
…
Green
is
Essence
Life
The forest
stretching for miles
Bringing peace
To my mind
To my soul
When I’m surrounded by green,
my struggles turn into
Relief.
Life surrounds me
A whole ecosystem of interconnected beings
Trees, birds, moss, flowers
Unaware of what an email is
Nor do the trees know of appointments
And fast
paced
malarkey
Green is
The grass tenderly holding me
When I couldn’t be held by anyone else
Green is passion
The northern lights
Burning up
High
Like love itself
A celestial storm
Rippling through the night
Green is the fire that burns without destruction
Without damage
But passion
Dreams
Hope
Green is life
And one day we all
end up
surrounded
by Green..
