There are many different types of going green.
The green of the summertime grass
or
the dark green of
a dirty pine,
or that of a vine
No matter where you go,
green F I S

L E around you
almost: like dough.
Saving the world’s vitals,
green arises
through
a tree,
the grass,
the rainforests,
and the grasshoppers,
notice that I have not said
anything about….
a Carbon footprint
so GO GREEN!!
