Jeanne Mcgee Poet Rhyme

Hibiscus

Symbol of the Goddess Kali full of bliss
The Rose of Sharon or Hibiscus
Frilly petals grace trumpets
Make tea for crumpets
Tropical
lover
Never Dull
Butterflies and bees
Drunk like hummingbirds, so pleased
Wear if married or single so fair
Hibiscus, your colors have beauty and flair

Andrea Dietrich June 27, 2019 at 12:10 AM Very poetic! I am struggling tonight doing comments by cell phone. I don't know if it's because I am on my phone, but your poem seems formatted kind of strange. Look and see. Did u center it and some lines fell down to next line?? Jeanne Mcgee June 28, 2019 at 12:07 PM I'm thinking it was the way it looked on your phone...I've reset the lines to look good on my phone and it looks all off on my computer....

Sandra Adams June 25, 2019 at 2:04 PM Very nicely written, rhyme is often a struggle for me, although i did just write one for this contest....yours flows beautifully~ Jeanne Mcgee June 25, 2019 at 7:31 PM Thank you Sandra. I've always avoided rhyme, so I have been working on them. Check out my monorhyme. It turned out very fun...I wish I may I wish I might...

Richard Lamoureux June 25, 2019 at 9:28 AM You know your flowers. I think this one is a winner. Jeanne Mcgee June 25, 2019 at 11:13 AM I'm so happy you like it. I've tried to grow them in Washington and unless a very harsh winter, I've had success.

Vijay Pandit June 25, 2019 at 8:17 AM I see the beauty of hibiscus in your words--great imagery, Jeanne.
