Green, Green Grass of Home

Nature,

That celebrated green neighborhood.



Roses,

That oh so wonderful scarlet hue.



Trees,

That immense exhilaration of stature.



Rivers,

That forever elegant tide.



Rainbows,

That multicolored marvel signaling the return.



Lakes,

That celebrated sapphire quantity of optimism.



Creatures,

That perfect combination of tenderness and brutality.

Wow! I've read A LOT of poems over the years, but I don't think i've ever seen a poem, with the theme of nature, devlivered in this way before. I really like the simple structure of poem. For someone that's just picking around at poetry, you've got some interesting talent!
