Marigold

Many intertwining crimson petals Around a heart of pure gold Rising all over the deep green grass Into a bed of red earth they nestle Gaily swinging honeyed halos Of these tiny ballerinas in yellow Looking like golden sun drops Don’t wish to leave this marigold meadow

Very nice, Tahera. Especially like your description of the "honeyed halos" and your comparisson of the marigones to "tiny ballerinas." A lovely piece for Carol's contest. Best wishes for success, Carolyn
