My Garden's Triple Crown

Lo and behold, a marigold
  Like nectar to sip, a bright tulip
No chill, just a thrill, a daffodil
  Hold that perfect pose, M'ss Rose

When life has me down
  When the world wears a frown
My garden sports a triple crown
  Fragrance, color, God's grace
    ~ Sun-up to sundown

Hello Gershon … your poem is like you're taking a photograph of your blooms in spring. Nice, positive, and pleasant - thank you Gershon - Lindsay

I kind of like the apostrophe. It gives your pieces a novel feel. As always your poetry sings.
