Just a Leaf

Too busy to lift heads... to interact with and admire those bits of green, look downwards for a mesmerizing substitute.

Competing with that famed green stone... and doing our best to adorn those living green spaces. The Jade plant - Nature's 'stand alone' Jewel, invites a second look and a third one too.

I have something... no matter how insignificant it is, that sets me apart-my  identity. A unique shade of green and a pattern that stands out.

The overall glow., the structure, the appearance... all speak of a healthy status thanks to daily pampering by streaks of sunlight.

There are times... when a crown is bestowed upon me for being green. I feel elated.

Look closely and you'll find a dash of green and vibrant streaks of the sun, running through my veins.

In the fading light of dusk, when a grey blanket takes over the blue expanse overhead, the many hues of green collaborate for a show.

Lines of maturity, speak of... braving, many many storms.  Alongside the more mature, the  inexperienced, make strides.
