This month we will be looking for Green. Green signals new life in spring, fresh green leaves, the shoots of new bulbs emerging from the soil. It is a cool and soothing colour, bringing us moisture and shade.

from pleasures less,
Withdraws into
its happiness…
Annihilating all that’s made
To a green thought
in a green shade“

~ Andrew Marvell
