... I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
or something much more colorful like that.
It's not easy being green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
or stars in the sky.
But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree.
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder?
Why Wonder
I am green and it'll do fine,
it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

Love your take on "GREEN".. Fun photos indeed.
ReplyDeleteGreat post and pics. In my childhood I was a little grey mouse and as a young adiult I did the opposite and became a colorful girl because I didn't want to be invisible anymore. Now I'm just ME with and without color :) Love the glasses, great "eyecatcher"!
