Notes About The Poem

Devil's Trumpet

Lilium Formosanum

Foxglove/digitalis ..A medicine for heart failure was once made from this plant..

Silver On a Ring

As the dew lies upon the grass
Like silver on the ring
And the fog coats the green pines
After last night's blowing rain

A sun rises below the gray
Bright shining hides the stars
Each plant awaits sun's strong rays
Reaching from somewhere afar

The trumpet vines' orange flowers
Make nectar for birds and bees
A waxy columbine attracts
Come feed on nectar please

All trump blossoms are not so sweet
Some produce smelly stink
But his charisma draws the crowds
A slanted speech in pink

The woody honeysuckle blooms
A rich aromatic scent
Its trumpet flowers draw hummers
Nectar abundant present

Devil's trumpet dark nectar draws
An unusual crowd
Those on moral decline hey come
Lilium formosanum shroud

Foxglove a deadly trumpet plant
Small doses gives heart rebirth
The show has gone on~on
I'd say we got our dollar's worth

The political campaign has been an ongoing show
Hey we got our one dollar campaign contribution's 
worth..LOL

Andrea Dietrich July 14, 2016 at 9:25 PM but also a very nature type poem!!! Interesting how you made it political. I am not even following that crazy circus show. Sara Kendrick July 15, 2016 at 5:36 AM Andrea, thanks for the visit..Nature can be good and bad as our political candidates can be good and bad..A child should be groomed from birth to be the president of the USA being taught what is right but that doesn't happen here does it???
