Write Nine Beautiful Lines (With A Twist) Poetry Contest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Twenty years ago this month I was in Enid A. Haupt Garden, a manicured garden surrounded by two rows of saucer magnolia trees. The magnolious large, cup shaped flowers showcasing breathtaking display of white or pinkish-purple petals with outer petals of darker shade of pink or purple. The petals, thick, soft and velvety scattered on the ground and benches. I was swept away by the pleasant fragrance and captivated by the scent, a combination of sweet, floral and slightly citrusy. A fragrance so noticeable for the scent wafted through the garden, creating a pleasing aroma, like a sweet lemony candy. Unforgettable! When will I see and smell them again?
