Always, Always Green

Sometimes I get soooooo tired of California.  


True.  The weather is amazing.  But all this constant sunshine keeps everything dry and brown.  


New England is always lush and green.


Well, except in the autumn when it too is very brown.  


Other than that...it's always green.  


Well, except in the winter when it's buried under tons of snow.


Then it's white.  But that's pretty too.


Well, until the snow starts to melt and turns everything to slushy shades of gray.  


Other than That...it's always green.  


Well, except in the spring when torrential rains splatter dark brown mud and icy black muck all over everything.  


But that's only temporary and everything turns super green afterwards.  


Well, until the summer season burns everything crisp and turns it brown again.  


Aside from THAT...


New England...


ah, my sweet home turf...


is always, always green.

doesn't take much

it doesn't take much to make me happy
for example i have this ball
it's big and round
and bouncy and rollie
and fun to kick at the wall
i'm gonna keep it forev-
