GREEN PALE LEAVES

GREEN PALE LEAVES
Glorify them
Go near them
And compliment them.
They are green
Even on the thorny sprigs.
They are green
Irrespective of their age
Young or middle aged.
They occupy
Only that much space
Which was allotted?
To them initially
The more you
Converse with them
The more greener
They become.
They retain their green hue
Had they been pale, no matter.
They provide me peace of mind
And I reciprocate.
