The Writer’s Workshop

Jealousy

She always looked good in green

Most compliments were when seen

Wearing different shades and hues

That is why she’d always choose

Clothing that suited her red hair

Contrasting nicely with greenish fare

Only after she fell for him

Green was the unwelcomed trim

He loved her for a moment true

Then suddenly out of the blue

He met another lover girl

Danced with her for a short whirl

Then the lady who wore green

Flaming hair’s temper keen

Her body now never seen

Jealousy had turned it green.
