Popular Flower
A popular well-known flower will reappear
And continue to come back year after year;
By next door neighbor, flower had been found;
When he said this, I almost hit the ground.
I'm glad flower is ours and we are full of bliss
Thanks to a sensational Texas Star Hibiscus,
Even though each bloom only lasts one day
I still marvel at all of its magnificent display.
I love every part of it down to each centigram;
Out front our flower is creating a traffic jam;
Each person is praying they too someday
Will receive a hibiscus seed I had given away.
