My Favorite Carnations

Like frills and laces on gowns; like wisdom and wit inter-spun; Joy-filling; peace-expressing; like sparks of the evening sun; Large, dwarf, spray... your blossoms shine in forms and types vivacious, In charm, splendor and exuberance you seem so gracious...! Glorious in garlands; floral queen of coronation; What devotee would avoid you, from God's adoration? Spring-seasonal sun and moisture you splendidly relish, Symbolizing heart-beats, gardens and minds you embellish...! 26 August 2022 Eight Lines of Rhyme - Your Favorite Flower Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Tania Kitchin

Like frills and laces on gowns…love that imagery! My mom loved carnations. I also love the old song…a white sports coat and a pink carnation. Indeed a carnation is a floral queen of coronation. Wonderful choice. ~ Kim
