Spring Selections

Wild, uncollected bouquets
Nature's artful, abundant glee
Beauteous grass-grown golden rays
Wild, uncollected bouquets
In perfumed, iris-purple haze
A kiss of green in white daisies
Wild, uncollected bouquets
Nature's artful, abundant glee.

Triolets are such a fun challenge for those of us that enjoy playing with words. Yours flows beautifully in style to equal the beauty in your words. I love the picture it painted and feel it delivered. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

I think flowers should always remain wild and uncollected don't you ? A lovely poem of scent and beauty. Have a great day dear Michelle.

Gorgeous imagery, Michelle. I had to look up to see what a Triolet was, and it is a beautifu triolet also, my friend. Your first one but certainly not your last, I hope.
