“Going green”, the buzz phrase
Bustling away far and near
Is it an abused phrase?
Is it voicing nature’s pain?
Green or blue?
Which is the color of mother earth?
Lush green forests breathe air into our planet
Blue drenches the thirst of living beings infinite
Green or blue?
Does nature only have colors two?
Or is there a canvas huge,
Painted by nature’s hues?
Brown is the turf we stand and rest upon
Gray is the ash we all someday become
Yellow is the sun, the raison d’être
The black night, helps us sleep tight
Bright is the morning light
Our chance to make things right
Leave a better world
Light up our kids’ lives
