This poem came from my creative writing class. We were able to pick paint chip sample cards and use their titles in our writing.The vibrant green shades I chose made writing about a childhood memory easy.  The colors were bright and playful and I decided to write about looking for four leaf clovers.  This is a game/activity that most can recall or relate to which makes the poem even more universal.  Whether you are middle aged or a young child now almost all ages can remember a time when they were in the grass searching alone or with friends for the good luck charm.  I wanted to convey a tone of reminiscence and longing of youth.
