Notes About The Poem

A Midas Touch

Cerulean blue on blue, the sky is in the lake,
In a season of windswept clouds, sun baked,
At yellow hilltop cottage, a chirrup outbreak,
Red flowers line its winding path, no mistake!

The prince of noon and queen of blooms meet,
In red and golden splendor, a fragrance treat!
Green is everywhere, with the colors candied,
But red rose emerges, with its own mystique!

Splendid poem. Today I wanted to buy two orchids but the delivery was late.

Thank you very much. I've never grown orchids before, but I do admire their beauty. :)

What a meeting that must be, between 'the prince of noon and the queen of blooms!' Such delicate phrasing, Evelyn. Thanks, Gershon
