Green

Lorna



Verdant valleys

The hue of home

Shamrocks

Eyes peering

Beneath auburn hair

Bewitching twilight

In the glades

Soft moss in the shade

Arwen’s gown

Trailing through the ferns

          Lorna,

          What a great picture! (If you donā€™t mind, may I post it in my picture gallery?) It looks like the great Italian valley with my little villa I left a few years ago. I hope and pray that I will be able to go back there again one day.

          A Beautifully penned poem.

          Thank you for sharing.

            Oh Laura! It's not my picture - found it free to copy on internet but like you found it so beautiful! How lucky you were to have lived there!

            Good write Laura.
            We've had enough in the UK of 'Storm Arwen' recently, what with naming of storms!

            • Lorna

              Was there really a Storm Arwen? Then a coincidence... but Arwen of the poem is very benign....

              • orchidee

                Yes - they name them if they are 'proper' storms. Glad to hear of your peaceful Arwen! lol.

              • woundedheart

                Shamrock eyes nice choice of colour and pride for your heritage. Love the poem and the picture painted within your words

                • Lorna

                  I have a little bit of Brennan in me but way back. Mostly Scottish and English and French so writing about Green just took me to the land of Brennan......thanks for liking!

                  a vacation escape, within words
                  thanks for sharing

                  • Lorna

                    Glad you like and it was free!

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    Your 'Colours' period, Lorna? I'll enjoy all of them - but will pester you to the end of time should you miss one out...

                    Evil? you have no idea....!

                    Sweet little write.

                    • Lorna

                      OK give them to me in order Dave! Let the games commence!

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        What, you think I'm going to hand you this on a plate, Lorna? You are living a dream...Evil hovers, waits.......

                        Thatā€™s the beautiful greenery my eyes are looking for
                        Cause it gives me peace
                        On the green
                        Under the green
                        I can find me
                        Thanks dear Lorna for the wonderful colour
                        The colour filled with a new insight

                        • Lorna

                          Peace and thanks.

                        • James Alexander

                          As always, beautifully descriptive. The contrast of green and auburn sets a lovely scene.

                          • Lorna

                            Thank you!

                          • Paul Bell

                            I'm an urbanite, but I do like the green, green grass that I usually fall into celebrating my useless team winning a game.

                            • Lorna

                              Embracing the grass is the best tribute....

                            • dusk arising

                              The land of my love. Stuff holidays abroad.... give me leisure time and this verdant land in the springtime.

                              • Lorna

                                It's to sing for!

                              • Audrey Cocker

                                Beautiful words flowing from the heart to touch the soul of listeners
