Apple green, apple green,
I love to paint things apple green...
It looks so clean,
With satin sheen,
Oh how I love this apple green...
I paint my kitchen ceiling nook
I paint it in the bath
But when I’m done
I look to see my children shake and laugh
Cuz while I painted to and fro
I splattered paint on hair and clothes
On my glasses, up my nose
Even green on my pink toes
No matter....
...I’ll paint it in each of my rooms
(Tho' you may say, she writes on fumes!)
But I say, "Oh no
I really do just love it so…"
Oh, this green with it's sheen,
It's so keen
Even if it's hard to clean....
....Off nose and hair and toes and jeans.
Tomorrow I will paint with brown
And I’ll think of rhymes and write them all down.

Nice poem! I laughed out loud at the writing of fumes phrase. :)
I can relate....only I'm having a love affair with red, black and white paint at the moment. It kinda takes over your life, doesn't it? Great poem!
Well, now, you had fun with this, didn't you? Which tells me, you MUST write more poetry! Come back next month when we'll be writing (shhh! don't tell) limericks!
I think you subscribed to the "No rules, just write" part of Pensieve's Poetic License (smiling); which is alright by me.
Thanks for joining in this month. And I guess I should tell ya this is more a Carnival than a Contest--the only prize is self satisfaction and the applause of blogging buds :).
Oh, I love it! So much fun!
FUN! Apple Green - a very lively color.
Oh, that is fun! I love apple green and I can just see your kiddoes laughing at you.
Happy St. Valentine's Day
Very cute! I love the imagery of green paint all over everything!
That was certainly very quirky! Your painting skills sound a bit like mine.
