Green Centres

   green centres,
      looking like 
little universes,

   something
      beautiful 
to discover.

   yellow petals 
   ring around 
green centres,

   little spiral
      galaxies
on a stem.

green may be
   springtime's
      signature.

   we see green
   emerge from
thawing mud.

   shoots reaching
   up for sunshine,
green excitement.
