Enchanting Green

A tribute to the colour and creations it inspires

Capture it!

            That essence, there!

            Watch it grow, glow, exquisite,

is it not?

Forever changed.

            That emerald shade,

            Starlit sewn with teardrop

dust,

     Morning mists,

     Laughing hearts,

A gentle breeze, picking leaves,

     Far-fetched decoration, on lovers

page,

     Natures cage,

Unlocked,

            The sonnets of the seasons,

Musical reasons,

Children at play,

            Blades with a fury,

And still a sheltering home,

     Souls haven,

     Mother Earths fame,

An enchanting game,

            But battles undone,

            The setting sun,

     Gently faded,

The blend of the pallet at the

artists hands,

Even angles have not such

     a view,

            Capture it!

            Feel it’s freedom,

     See it’s slyness; it’s cleaver fix,

That hidden smile,

            It speaks - - Listen closely,

            What we can learn,

            From a look,

                        A patient thought,

From a moment in time,

     And the view,

          the love,

                        of enchanting green,

The dazzling scene,

            And forests queen.

An excellent poem. Artsistic use of line breaks, it comes off very well, forcing the reader's eyes to go where your writing leads. Excellent use of imagery and emotion. I didn't notice any gramatical errors. Overall, I'd give it a (more-or-less) perfect 100!! Green is one of my favorite colors, so I might be a little biased, but my opinion is just an opinion, so who cares.

currently within the winter's icy grip (though there is beauty to be found there too ) it was the title that brought me here. my favorite shade of green, is brought forth from storm clouds ironically. it is that green so bright, so different , fresh and alive - after a summer storm passes through. almost as if the rain has washed away the hazy fog that we had previously been viewing the world through. the rhythm here definitely packs that power - that complete celebratory tone. all for the color green. very nice!!

This was a very exciting poem to read! It was even better when I read it outloud. It definitely pulls one into a wild dreamscape. The best kind of writing is one where the reader can put him/herself into the writer's mind.

Beautiful! Simply wonderful and joyous. You have done an awesome job, but all of your writing is very, very well done.

Absolutely beautful.. I felt like I was swept away in a lush dreamscape of emerald, your words are well placed and expressed. Enchanted indeed.

I like the focus and the vigorous enthusiasm you evoke. It feels really fresh, as if you, and through you the reading is seeing green for the first time. I like green as if happens...traffic light green for go...and it is, I believe, supposed to symbolise love...also emeralds seem less gaudy then rubys or sapphires...and a green silk scarf with a little black dress... But it is the greens of nature that win hands down, especially in early May when the leaves are still almost transparent. I like these lines best...
