Notes About The Poem

Peach Sherbert Garden

blush peach gerbera daisies
echinacea marmalade
angel’s trumpet cassie’s curls
chantilly peach snapdragon

christa coral bells
daylily tangerine
apricot whirl narcissus
a la mode dahlia

zinnia thumbelina
peaches ‘n dreams hollyhock
hues of apricot lisianthus
hawaiian punch carnation

sienna sunset coreopsis
indian summer rose
toasting pink champagne
hues of apricot

A lovely garden and do you use any of these for medicinal purposes? I learned about many of them from my Dad who always had a herb garden alongside of his vegetable garden.

My beautiful gardens are all imaginary - extremely low maintenance. And I buy my herbs dry for healthy teas.

You are on a leisurely garden "roll" with these poems, Line. It is great to see so many possibilities!

Yes, I was inspired by the garden contest and it opened a floodgate.

All the nuances, shades and creative colors! This is really a rich piece! It leaves me wanting to inhale the fragrance of the flowers! Really well done!

Actually, Connie, the garden contest inspired me to write several poems so I left my first one as the contest submission - this one is a bonus.
