The number of greens is awesome!
It seems they're a bit overdone...
But wouldn't the world be boring
if God had created just one?
 
Blues of the sky, always shifting,
in its hues of darkness and light,
palest of blues in the morning
and dark sapphire blue in the night.
 
Yellows and golds as the day breaks,
purples and pinks at sunset,
Father created a palette
Creation will never forget.
 
All colors sing praises loudly
acknowledging Lord God on high. 
People, all colors together,
give thanks to our God, Adonai.

Author Notes
This is an entry for the NatPoetryMonth Contest. I'm a couple of days behind (already), but have every intention of catching up! lol

As I stood outside this early morning, I looked at the sky through the leaves of a red oak growing in our yard. I tried to count the shades of green I could see just in that small sampling left me smiling at God's graciousness, even in something as simple as the creation of colors.
Rich Mullins sang a song called 'The Color Green'. If you haven't heard it, you should take a few minutes and listen.

Adonai is one of the names of God. It means 'Master of all'. It's translated into English as Lord God, Soverign God, Almighty God, and God of All.

Heres the first place I found it. If you know of an earlier spot, let me know. :)

Genesis 15:2 (CJB): Avram replied, �?�¢??Adonai, God, what good will your gifts be to me if I continue childless; and Eli�?�¢??ezer from Dammesek inherits my possessions?


Find that song, The Color Green (Rich Mullins) here:
