Zinnia

"Sweet temptress Zinnia beckons from the sky the butterfly." - by poet How eagerly and easily you grow, lovely Zinnia, and in late spring, an explosion of bright colors you show to those who pass by you. What cheer you bring! Purple, orange, yellow, red, peach and pink - you wear those colors well, and butterflies adore your hues! They come to you and drink your nectar sweet, which at your center lies. Wonderfully you bloom until late fall, worshiping the sun. You show such power, for hummingbirds and bees are in your thrall. For friendship, you are the perfect flower because with strength you always persevere. This makes you, Zinnia, forever dear.

I do like the show they put on and how they allure butterflies. I want to put some out this year. The plants that I had and kept planting seeds from their blooms completely ran out last year, so I need to start anew. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K

Wow! Im speechless! The quote and the sonnet both are absolutely gorgeous! So well woven with exquisite imagery and descriptive diction! I love the flow of your rhymes and how youv also written “ Wonderfully you bloom until late fall, worshiping the sun. You show such power,” what an ode to this flower! I love it! A fave it is. Best wishes for the contest
