Green Grass by Sophie L.

Everyday people big and small
run across my lush green surface.
They tickle me and I laugh.
The wind blows so my
hair blows.

I am never lonely
for I cover almost all the land.
Where I don't cover I make friends
with the sea, the ocean and the desert.
We never fight; we always get along.

In the winter
I cuddle down
in my blanket of snow.
After Mother Nature tucks me in
I fall fast asleep.

When I awake in the spring
I must wash my clothes
for they are brown and dirty
because they have been covered
for oh so long.
