L Milton Hankins Poet Dizain

In Tune With My Flowers

The pansies together like gentle hearts
Purples, pinks, yellows harmonize in spring
A choir with violets, their counterparts,
Throwing a glorious warm weather fling
Sweet harbingers of summer make me sing
My season of the year will soon arrive
Coneflowers and daisies chant alive,
My garden is singing all summer long
If gladiolas and asters will thrive
My garden and I will sing the same song.
