A List of Green Things.
By Kate Toon

Bunches of holly,
At Christmas time,
Juicy grapes,
Upon the vine.

Grass and plants,
Shrubs and trees,
Frogs and toads,
Aphids, not bees.

Apples and pears,
Avocados,
Mould and goo,
Stuff in you nose.

Crocs and lizards,
Parrots too,
Ocean seas,
When they’re not blue.

Solar panels,
Compost peat,
Farms for worms,
Some peoples feet.

By Daisy

RECOLLECTIONS
by Doug Baltz

I WAS A PIRATE, YOU WERE A QUEEN
TIS TRUE MY LOVE, IT WASN'T A DREAM
WE LIVED AND LOVED, IN MEADOWS OF GREEN
A ROMANCE OF FIRE, FLAMES HOT BUT UNSEEN

I WAS IN REFUGE, AS YOU WERE TOO
FROM LOVERS AND FRIENDS, WHO'D PROVEN UNTRUE
YOU WERE UNCERTAIN AND WARY OF MY CHARM
DIDN'T REALLY KNOW ME, FEARED GETTING HARMED

WE DANCED AND WE SANG BY THE SUN AND THE MOON
UNTIL WE WERE ONE, IN RHYME AND IN TUNE
IN GREEN FOREST GLADES, OUR LIPS WOULD SPARK
MAKING SWEET LOVE, TILL LONG AFTER DARK

YOU GAVE UP YOUR KINGDOM, I, MY OUTLAW LIFE
TO LIVE IN THE SUNSET, AWAY FROM THE STRIFE
HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS TALE TO BE TRUE
YOUR NAME WAS BURGUNDY, I WAS CALLED BLUE
