On Things That Are Green

There are a great many things in this world that are green, among which can be found plants, bugs, eggs and ham, houses, frogs, and jackets worn by little men as they go trooping up the mountains and through glens.

With spring having begun last week, let us look at the first two items listed; both which we will be seeing more of in the coming weeks. Plants, which make up the majority of green things, can lead an individual to happiness or distress. If you find yourself surrounded by them in a garden it can be most pleasant and provide you with a relaxing afternoon or they may make up that tasty salad you had for lunch. In contrast, an encounter with poison ivy will most likely lead to a great deal of itching and most likely the wish that you had paid more attention to the plants you had touched. Bugs, unlike plants, usually bring about thoughts of disgust or of horror and more often than not appear on an individual seemingly out of nowhere to bring one to a sudden state of shrieking in attempt to be rid of them. While this is not the case for all green bugs, few would probably be glad to find themselves the unsuspecting transportation for a grasshopper or caterpillar.

And with that, as you go about your week consider all the lovely green things around you and try not to go near plants that will make you itch! ♥
