    Who said “Green is good”?
    I think it was a gecko.
    I can’t remember…..

    Wow! I love photos like these. These teeny tiny creatures are so incredible, I love getting a glimpse of their world. Makes me think before I spray my roses. (But then, if they eat my roses, that’s another dilemma!)

    You can edit Verlaine’s “Green” to an almost-haiku.

    Voici des fruits, des fleurs,
    Des feuilles et des branches
    Et puis voici mon coeur
    Qui ne bat que pour vous.

      Ne le déchirez pas avec vos deux mains blanches
      Et qu’à vos yeux si beaux l’humble présent soit doux. :D

    I have a new rule:
    Licking your eyeball is cute,
    Said the green gecko.

    Easy being green;
    It’s the colour of Spring, and
    What I want to be.

  11. The Original Jane says:

    Yaaay! My favorite color!

  12. Yaya says:

    You sure the first one isn’t a bunch of birds in the hand?
    (you know, “fool me once…”)
