GREENd of Tunnel

There is green at the end

The end of the tunnel

Where the darkness of growth

The pain, confusion and

uncertainty of transformation

Yields a new verdant life with

Brilliant lime of burstings

Soft leafy of unfurlings

Wispy emerald of shootings

Crisp sage of teachings

There is green at the end

The end of the tunnel

Where our eyes finally adjust

Adjust to the growth already unfolding

Moving through the murky constriction

The muddled obscurity of incubation,

The hidden hues of gestation

into the luminous virescent

of our reachings—

Where Everything opens up to be seen

Everything comes into the spectrum of green—

Everything Aliveness! in scene
