Buttercup

BUTTERCUP Like a flower I have grown Thanks to you, my love, my own. Like the sun your light has shone On me and mine In your warmth divine. Like a flower I began to bloom With your loving care I felt better soon. Like the rain my tears fell Until you gently touched me Your silent love to tell. And like a flower I soaked it up. Yes, now I’m your Buttercup! By: Carole O’Terry Duet Copyright: 3/1/2020 “All Rights Reserved”

The buttercup is a pretty flower, yet in your poem, a classic orchid, truly a remarkable poem is this...
