excruciatingly green grass

For Delmar, and Chris ... inspired review and conversations.

The stains on the walls
the garbage on the streets
unexpectedly replaced by spring
and excruciatingly green grass.

he says, "you got it bad..."
and she hates to admit it,
but she does.

When you are in love, the whole world is beautiful....maybe you got it bad, but that is a good thing! Lydi**

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes, good, and scary, all at the same time. Thanks for reading

[Relic]

An eye-opening of sorts. The metaphor here is quite deep and almost hidden. Love can often feel like spring, can't it?

Impressive writing.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks so kindly. :)

[Lorry]

Your words here speak to my strange little minf as the first part being the norm and the last part would be apprehension at change, even if it was something that I knew was coming. But that's just me, sitting in my own comfort zone, who needs at least a days notice to make a phone call, or panic sets in and I go hibernate. It may be gloomy, but sometimes life can be just too much green :)

[Lyn Anderson]

Your interpretation is bang on. When things were awful sometimes change, even for the good, is scary as hell

[Lorry]

too true, any change can be scary. Fearing the past and unable to see the hope it will work, I wonder how we get anywhere at all sometimes.

[Neville]

the worst part is when others only see that bit ya wanna hide.... now that hurts...

[Lyn Anderson]

I suppose that's true, thanks

[Ana Papaya]

Like when life is crap and then all of a sudden your life is full of rainbows and you feel like it's not something you're used to?

[Lyn Anderson]

Very true, thanks

[Paul Bell]

She's got it bad cos that bloody grass grows and grows.
It's like someone gives you a garden and a lawnmower, but no instructions.

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes, pretty much. Thanks

[Chris Shaw]

A change of outlook. Green for growth. Excruciating green, full steam ahead. All good wishes. Smiling at this upbeat little poem

Chris

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you so much

[NeiL ArandA]

I'm slow here KLG ..please bear with me ...Is it greener on the other side of the lawn ?

[Lyn Anderson]

I suppose, in all supposings, if it is that green, it must be greener on the other side.

[NeiL ArandA]

OK I got it ..your funny :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]
