Notes About The Poem

Profusion of Blooms

white roses 
   profusely bloom~

             m
                m

                     r
in garden beds
   exquisite their scent~
      sweet perfumed
          fragrance

in sunlight
    they thrive
        kept alive
            far longer
in Nature's fingers
   than in a crystal vase
      s
        w
           a
             y~

on stems in the wind

Andrea Dietrich May 14, 2026 at 12:20 PM Ahhh the Yalto form. It looks so cool .was the patterning also part of Yalto rules because if not, it certainly enhanced your poem's loveliness Lin Lane May 14, 2026 at 12:24 PM I just wrote a pattern that I thought worked to better make the points. Thanks, Andrea.
