Granny's Blossoms

Beside the old house 
on the northern side,
where Granny's flowers
did abide,

Red roses flourished,
orange Poppies too,
and tall Holly Hocks
of crimson grew.

Dahlias, Iris,
Snap Dragons of blue,
plus beautiful Asters 
covered in dew.

Great hues of color
with greenery fine,
I'll always remember 
those blossoms divine.
