Shades of Green; a poem

Have you noticed 

all the shades of green? 

.

“Look there,” she would say

to make green become

more than one color 

.

Great pines above, 

laced ferns below 

.

Look 

and feel her smile 

.

Do you see the shades 

of green? 

.

To live in a place

bursting with life

.

The small treasures noticed, 

the beauty she shared

 .

But the best treasure of all 

was not the green 

.

It was the reason for it
