Victor Buhagiar Poet Verse

Admiring the Wildflowers

My poor wife thinks I'm crazy,
Or maybe just plain lazy.
But in my spare short brief time,
I watch the meadow sublime.

A long patch of rugged lane
In summer, clouds never rain,
I laud the cornflowers blue,
Though some reds ones appear too.

Butterflies flit here to there,
While bees suck the nectar bare
Above a flock of birds soar,
The first worm is its prize score.

How long can one pry the wild?
Till my wife comes, food all piled.

Valsa George January 12, 2022 at 2:13 AM I think one can watch the wild if there are such beautiful sights as you have described ! Your practical wife took you to be either crazy or lazy ! I enjoyed it Victor. She might not have shown any annoyance as she knows it is the food of your poetic creation! Victor Buhagiar January 12, 2022 at 2:34 AM My wife was a saint.

Beryl Edmonds September 4, 2021 at 10:34 AM One can pry the wild for a lifetime, I do Victor, though it’s not wild here in the small town where we live, though there is a green nearby that has some beautiful trees and flowers, I go there often to admire the view and listen to the birds singing too… Lovely poem! ~ Hugs, Belle

Sotto Poet September 2, 2021 at 10:12 AM The appealing nature poetry is supplemented with excellent rhyming that includes many of the traits we like about nature. Victor, I am amazed by your richly hued paint and the stunning artwork of your lovely pen. Excellent finish and excellent rhyming.

Kim Rodrigues September 2, 2021 at 3:17 AM Wildflowers enhance but do not replace your special love. My dad refills his bird feeder and cares for his lawn but the house is quiet. Only us kids and an occasional relative call help relieve the loneliness. You, poet, describe nature in such a lovely way. We are listening.

Tom Cunningham September 2, 2021 at 2:28 AM A tranquil moment admiring what nature offers. Tom

Joanna Daniel September 2, 2021 at 1:44 AM That's a scrumptious ending, Victor, great rhyme with 7 syllables per line:)
