Lovely Lily

Time laughs as she looks luminously red
In my longish love-pot looking gorgeous
Rich nature has so fondly invested
Her with marine beauty so infectious

At morning she beautified my garden
With her softly reassuring pink grace 
At noon my white lily is quite ardent 
At evening oranges come on her face 

Maddeningly red lily she is now
Crimson murmur firing sparks from Venus
I am not sure of my art as to how 
To hold you tonight for a trip to Mars 

Lovely perfume frees all birds of frisson
Getting me inside the clouds from ocean

Being a gardener I understand better your marvelous poem! It is so vivid and real that one can scent its aroma, my friend, Probir! Good luck and a seven!
