I like it when

the green things glow

grow thingies grow

slime green

lime green

things that glow green

glow low to the ground

around town

while hounds howl

coyotes prowl with

musky fur gray-

green eyes aglow

low to the ground

at the town-edge.

I like it when the fireflies glow

yellow-green

apple-green

dappling leaves

swirling aground.

blowing through town

while hunting hounds howl

coyotes prowl

at the town’s edge.
