Orange Day Lilies
The orange day lilies have bloomed again
returning each spring like an old friend
They grow so tall and close at night
each morning they open with the sunlight
Thick as thieves growing like weeds
they bring pleasure for all to see
Butterflies and humming birds
sweet the nectar for them it lures
Brightly orange with yellow inside
the smiles they bring cannot be denied
Orange Day Lilies a mother's gift
to this day my heart they lift.
