Notes About The Poem

Peonies

 "I must have flowers, always, always."

                                           Quote -Claude Monet


Peonies, so lovely in my garden growing,
showy beauties that can live a hundred years;
love most-   pink coloured blooms overflowing,
and recall them in mothers garden with tears.

Oh, intoxicating scents drift in the air,
they adore morn' sun and afternoon shade;
these sweet blooms thrive with little care,
I am always sad to see them fade.

Valsa George August 24, 2022 at 8:43 PM The flowers not only serve as feast to your eyes, but bring sweet memories of your deceased mother's garden . Thus the Peonies are at once a symbol of joy and pain to you ! Beautiful poem, dear Constance .
