Does anyone know or remember what this is?
It's called the color Green and it's growing in our yard!
I opened my window one morning and the "green beams" of color blinded me.
Once recovered I was at first a little skeptical of this "green" stuff. Then I remembered it from last year! I went from utter terror of this green invasion to absolute jubilance at the remembrance of what green means. So if you are hiding in your house and occasionally mustering up the courage to peeking thru the window shades at the "green raid". If you too are having this same sort of experience, don't be scared! The english word for the green stuff you see outside is "Grass". Webster's definition of it is this :
grass
[gras, grahs]

Here is Daddy showing Eli how to tame the "green beast".
You too can be a yard Knight! :D
The only survivor of the Eli yard Massacre!
Behold Sir Greenyard, Knight of Scott-land!
The youngest yard Knight of all!
May his story of the taming of the yard be past down for GENERATIONS!
(Yeah he's the Man!)
Now not everything is green! Like this little flower so white and clean that my sweet brother Sir Greenyard presented to me after his conquering of the Scott-land! ;)
See, it's Natural! It happens every year and it CAN'T HURT YOU!
So, on another Sunny nice day get out there and roll in it. Yes I said ROLL-IN-IT!
It wont eat you! I promise! It's just been a while since we have seen it.
SPRING IS SPRINGING!
(Side-affects for some may be itchy watery eyes and sneezing or even a rash.)
(If this sounds like you consult a doctor for some minor treatment that will help you get back out there!)
I Hope this post has helped you to embrace the coming change!
God Bless
