Steel Magnolia

(STEEL) MAGNOLIA
 Breathtaking,
 Delicate beauty
 Of Creamy Perfection
 With Roots Running Deep
 In Southern Soil,
 A history almost
 As old as time,
 And endurance
 As tough as
 Steel;
 She defies description
 And explanation
 But...
 Beauty is its own excuse
 2012 Patricia Neely-Dorsey
