Flower Prom

crocuses peering at rows of bright red tulips near the iris beds pansied faces have retired wilting in the warm sunshine flower prom begins as gentle winds kiss roses sunflowers steal show swaying to their own rhythm with stunning, huge blooms bridal veil flowers extend above azaleas bowing tenderly delightful sight to behold dance of marigolds frail petunias search for gentle dancing partners lily petals reach for petunias graciously prom lasts all summer

You have created a beautiful garden. Your poem has put a smile on my face. Thank you for your comments today on my Child of God poem. I am honored that you made me a fave. To say I had a bad day is an under statement. Your words cheered me up. God bless you, Rhonda

The dance of the flowers is so vivid and it is an entrancing scene filled with color and scent. You paint with magical words Carolyn and the scene is lovely! P S I don't see a cup & saucer by your name to send you a soup mail, where did it go or how can I message you?
