Ipomoea Macrantha
Ipomoea Macratha twist and turns climbing the trellis
But it is not glossy green elongated leaves I relish
Those flowers of white that appear at night really draw my fancy
Soft and delicate with the Starfish design but only at night dances
When sun goes down it is time for it to open and show its crown
That beautiful white flower that loves the sun's end and going down
The sweet potato is in this plant's family__that lucious food
Some members of family are medicine after being stewed
So influenced by the moon the flower opens wider when full
Stays open longer when the moon gives it a high in daylight pull
The ivory white that is so soft that it looks like white rose petals
At the flower shows it should receive all the honorable metals
Morning glory lunar flower best for entertaining in dark hours
Just wait first bloom will appear then jealousy comes from those flowers
