Chrysanthemums

Sonnet LXXII

Coming from the Greek "krus anthemon" 
Heroic as the name implies, hath told
Revitalised each myth that once upon
Yearns wonder while a bunch of these I hold, 
Sufficient is the splendid orb that says, 
Another legend shuns the said sunrise
Note all, have in abundance grand displays 
Together in their sphere of stark surprise 
Hitherto, have I seen this utmost vast. 
Essential to the backcloth, those in front 
Might eagerly to reach new heights and cast 
Unequalled while those fairytales advance 
May gods appear so their religions last,
So they can be accepted unsurpassed.
