Mystic Rose Rose Poet Limerick

When a Flower Waits

They sit with a purpose in sight
inviting me sweetly with bright 
yes they bloom at will
cuz they know the drill
those flowers of sentinel light 

Competing for my sweet attention 
they wait for my pollen retention 
they signal me home 
where I love to roam 
those flowers of beauty reflection 

Wiping the pollen away I am glad   
secreting the nectar dropping a tad   
a succulent flower 
sure holds the power 
when a seedling in love goes unclad.
