Happiness

Happiness is remembering my wild summer garden, Arbors of white roses and purple clematis; Pretty yellow daylilies and daffodils beside a rail fence, Placing carefully flowers, I create a soul-soothing retreat. In my lovely garden all Mother's old favorites grow, No color does not have its place to welcome birds and butterflies; Even wild flowers and vines, and kittens grow, Seeding themselves the purple larkspur and rosy phlox; Such beauty, O such beauty, now is resting beneath the snow. _____________________________ December 14, 2015 Acrostic Written by Broken Wings For the contest, Happiness Acrostic, sponsor, John Hamilton Sixth Place
