Green v2.

Green

The relic was cracked upon arrival
The center jewel eyed them suspiciously

Like they were children starving to see the forest
Hopelessly obsessed with the tales of old

Little hands pried frantically at leafy creases
Not heeding value that was chipped away

Pleading with their hurried whispers
They hoped the winking stone might show them

Exactly what they had been looking for all this time.

Good game, me.
