the little green me

it's not easy being green:
having to spend each day the color of leaves
when I think it could be the nicer being purple, or yellow or gold :D
or something much more colorful like that.

it's not easy being green.
it seems you blend in with so many other ord'nary 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

ps. this is the GREEN valentine day
