Joann you are almost in ballad meter [common meter 8/6/8/6] most sonnets are 10-12 syllables per line iambic meter and the last two lines are a conclusion. This could easily be tweaked into a nice ballad with 2 more lines and evening out the syllable count. A bit harder to get it shaped up into a sonnet BUT it could be done ;) Light & Love

I don't know many flowers by their given names, but these I'm mostly familiar with! What a beautiful rendition of a poem, bringing flowers to their primal light! Very beautiful Joann, Great Work!!

Flowers make quite a few things seem more worth while when you walk with their colours and scents all around, it works for me anyway, I like this poem, thanks. Read ;{>
