that morning, sun rose
emerald, its beneficence greenwashing
town and field

trees greened, root and twig
grass: root tip up
water, green
tortoise, cow, swine: green
bacon, ham, ribs, all green
eggs: shell, yolk, "white" -- green
(grass, emerald, something a bit like new bay leaves)

"eggs and ham" the diner said
and smiled seraphically,
a field of new-mown grass
