AUTHOR'S OTHER TITLES (1) The Fall Of '09 (Poetry) Poem [234 words]
The Grass Was Green And So Was She Brian Terrell
The Grass Was Green (And So Was She)
The grass was green and so was she
A warm south wind blew through the trees
The sun shined bright in a clear May sky
We spread the blanket on the ground as the river rushed by
Potato salad and fried chicken, biscuits and baked beans
Warm apple pie and a kiss on the cheek
Pretty tan legs and wonder in her eyes
Long brown hair and a face filled with surprise
While she was changing clothes, she wouldn�t let me look
When she put her hand in mine, I noticed that it shook
We waded into the river, she splashed water in my face
I kissed her long and slow and held her in my embrace
We swam forever or I guess so it seemed
We laughed, kissed, and talked about all sorts of things
I guess no one saw except the Lord above
As we lay on the green grass of that bank and made love
I didn�t see her again after that day
I never called, I used to be a jerk that way
But I never cared, never intended for it to last
Only wanted that moment with her on the green grass
Well days and weeks and months they pass
It�s funny how the years slip away so fast
It got a factory job working ten hours a day
Heard she was going to college a hundred miles away
I was walking out of the bank, my loan had been denied
She was walking up, some guy by her side
She acted like she didn�t know me as they walked past
But that night I dreamed of a river and green, green grass
The grass was green and so was she
