Best Camellia Poems
Camellia white white
Petals have covered the ground
With the first fall snow
There once was a man from Georgia
Who bought his love a Camellia
Red blooms for Saint Valentine
This gift no adrenline
Just glad that it's not grindelia
We know her as Camellia...that fine name,
a perfect one for someone sweet as she;
her silky skin and amber eyes proclaim
a charming, pristine beauty, all agree.
Just like the flower's petals, pure and white
are shaped into a cup of perfect form,
Camellia molds her care to help them fight
the painful journey to more healthy norm.
Our dear Camellia comes most every day
to nurture our close friend who cannot walk.
Her tenderness and kindness lead the way
with her fine therapy and gentle talk.
Her steadfastness and excellence outshine
the beauty and the presence she portrays;
it's what's inside her heart that is sublime
and marks her loveliness in many ways.
Just as the flower does, Camellia lives,
with meaning of a pure and lovely soul;
perfection, beauty, in the care she gives
to her dear patients...help, her only goal.

"The symmetrical beauty and long-lasting quality of the flower have long been appreciated. White camellias with their pristine and pure hue depict an adorable quality. The white blossom may also symbolize perfection without blemish. Camellias, no matter what the color have meanings attached to them like steadfastness, and excellence. Once the white Camellias go into its fully bloomed form, it takes the shape of a delicate cup of petals...for the white camellia, getting blossoms with a perfectly shaped cup will embody your message of admiration for someone’s adorable qualities."
camellia droops
under the weight of rain
blossoms fall like tears
received in bouquet
as an admiration sign
the pristine flower

Are you seized, Camellia
Of a secret grief
To let slip, uncontrollably
A blessing too brief?
A silly thought, true; only
What for it grasssed, glows
Of father's death at the prime
Emblematic shows.
The teas that bring on sleep
Are lavender and camellia
Some people enjoy lavender
tea
It has an unique taste I tried it once
and enjoyed
I love the scent of the tea
I also like the plant that
is grown
I buy it every summer
Watering it with love
The camellia tea
Is a tea like no other
It helps to make you
sleep
It has an unique taste
I like the scent
If lavender tea is not
found
I drink camellia tea
both teas work for me
Lavender tea nw hard to
find
So i drink camellia tea
