covered with grass; having a lot of grass

two children run barefoot across a lush green meadow covered entirely in thick grass. Their feet sink slightly into the soft grass blades as they chase each other playfully. The dense grass stretches in all directions, creating a natural carpet beneath their steps. Each blade sways gently in the breeze as the children move through the field. Their parents sit on a blanket nearby, surrounded by the same thick grass covering. The grass appears so abundant that it completely covers every inch of the ground visible.  an area completely covered with grass, having a lot of grass everywhere
