Disturb Not the Tulip's Place

Disturb not the tulip's place, for it's beauty is abound. Leave it's color in it's place, where stems meet the ground. Care for the garden where it lives, feed it, water it and it's rows turn. Of yourself to it forever lovingly give, knowing that each year it will return. Beautiful and sacred the tulip's face, it's graciousness comes from above. Each leaf is of a velvet, perfect lace, unfolded by the sun's undying love.

I honestly have never encountered a poet of your gift on this site. You have the Muse in your veins, and the language in your head. This makes me now embark on the mission of studying your poetry and inviting others to read it. You have all my respect and a 7+++!
