Kelly Deschler Poet Quatrain

Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue

Roses are red,
violets are blue,
this flower bed,
is just for you.

Among the stone,
and in the mud,
a flower shone,
a beautiful bud.

It grew so tall,
proud and strong,
it learned all,
right and wrong.

Giving it water,
and warm sun,
your only daughter,
learned about fun.

Mommy come see,
look what I did,
now I can be,
a grownup kid.

This flower bed,
is just for you,
with roses, red,
and violets, blue.




Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

Regina Branham June 1, 2014 at 12:21 AM Kelly I apologize for my exclamation marks appearing as question marks--my phone did it. Kelly Deschler June 3, 2014 at 1:44 AM That's alright, I understand the mistake, Regina!

Regina Branham May 29, 2014 at 12:24 PM Clever take on a well known verse! I like the inspirational breath of life you blew into this.??. Kelly Deschler May 31, 2014 at 9:52 PM Thank you very much for the kind comments, Regina!.... That little verse was probably the first poem that we ever wrote, when we were kids. I just wanted to use it in a more mature way, now that I am older!
