Liriodendron

Magnificent tulip tree
Shows off its majesty
Vastness of stars reflected in its flowers is something to see
Coldness of space contrasted by flaming sea

To reflect all the expanses for tulip tree
Is its flower’s destiny
Delicate petals of sublime beauty
But more it is aroma that is carried when day is breezy 

The aroma will not make you blind
But it might push the soul outside
So with divine it will be aligned
And whisper secrets there you might find

The depths of one’s mind like palace of colorful ice
Illuminated by stars looks nice
But liriodendron spawned view has its price
One must open soul to his advice
