Pour Love

Pour love everywhere
Veer fairy lilies gently
Thrilling spring’s beauty

Plant white carnation
Daisies are chanting “Holy”
Freeing harmony

Pour love everywhere
Palm branches cuddle lily
Wine is spring’s honey 

Plant dwarf gladiolus
A rosy crown is homey
Fairy’s sketch pretty.
By: Nadia Shahwan. This poem "Pour Love" won an honorable mention in June
2009, then became the winner in January 2010.

Congrats on your haiku collection winning honorable mention and thanks for your comment on "Still". The mis spelling was intentional for effect on DG's dialect contest. Just wrote it for fun. God Bless. Vince

I love this poem for the state of mind it has put me in, like the big great joke of god: some divine pleasures are given to us as gifts... (Also went through a bit of a flower-writing phase...)
