Wondrous frangipani... You mesmerize me so. Like a fan, I twirl you Between my fingertips; Striking yellow-white hue! Wondrous frangipani... You're the most eye-catching Of all the spring flowers; A captivating sight After April showers. Wondrous frangipani... Beautiful as a tree; Lovely in women's hair. Stirred by a gentle breeze, Your scent wafts in the air. Wondrous frangipani... Catnip to bumblebees; Hordes of butterflies, too. Show-stealer in gardens; Gift to a day brand new!
