The Glory Of Green Poem by Connie Marcum Wong

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

The Glory of Green

Green hues denote the healing of our earth,
That special season of springtime's rebirth.

Green grasses growing o'er the hillside's face,
Embracing greening trees in leafy lace.

While amber fields engage in heaven's kiss
As raindrops splash into emerald bliss,

I watch amazed as tender shoots abound
With daffodils and tulips breaking ground.

A floral scent begins to fill March air.
St. Patty's I'll wear flowers in my hair.

So many varied hues that can be seen,
This Irish lass loves every shade of green!
