Best Carnations Poems


Premium Member White Carnations and Red Roses
Sweet fragrance of moist dew seeks to transpose
white carnations, baby's-breath,  red roses.
Heartwarming blooms called upon to compose
striking overture, fond bridal poses.


White carnations, baby's-breath, red roses,
their fervor takes the breath away with grace.
Striking overture, fond bridal poses,
romance of harmony at glance embrace.


Their fervor takes the...

Premium Member My Favorite Carnations
Like frills and laces on gowns; like wisdom and wit inter-spun;
Joy-filling; peace-expressing; like sparks of the evening sun;
Large, dwarf, spray... your blossoms shine in forms and types vivacious,
In charm, splendor and exuberance you seem so gracious...!

Glorious in garlands; floral queen of coronation; 
What devotee would...

Carnations Pure Love

Carnations
Of many rainbow radiant colors
Kiss of heavens fragrance
With a heavy, spicy floral aroma tinged by sweet dark honey
~
Carnations
Corsage around my wrist
My first prom I cannot wait
And, lose myself in your arms as we dance

Carnations
Rows of carnations
children grab, defying rule
time withers with them.

Carnations and Roses
Take carnations 
tender child
till the hand 
hardens
holding thorns 
beneath petals
without crying
chasing kites
butterflies 
rainbows colors
dazzling
from 
dawn splendor
to the scarlet 
gold horizon
dreaming castles
treasure islands
pearls and corals
sparkling
juggling stars
with cherubs 
smiling
on moon slice
gliding 
through
snow lit
Christmas
galaxies 
blue and red 
shimmering
till clock hands
on rose stop
thorns of time
piercing
time to pay
love with love
with...

What's found at the crack of an egg
wonderin if I have somethin', anything
left to say..   
bright yolk or young generations hope..   
open your mind, try if you can
whether breakfast or prayer for man.

Y'know I go to visit the lonely in their...

ROSES AND CARNATIONS

Roses and carnations, a lively
Imitation, of life’s full-bodied wine.
Different, yet parallel.
The embodiment of Cupid’s strike.

~

Riveting roses, sensual & aromatic.
Hourglass form, like lover’s hips
And crimson lips. She’s introverted,
Felicitous and faithful.

A dozen in her dainty hands,
A crown of beauty, bestowed.
Jealousy of upturned smiles,
Tremble around this...

Bouquet of roses espouses love of spouse
Sentiments evoke memory that never dies
Roses and carnations adorn a loving house
Kiss of flowery scents flares romantic eyes

Sentiments evoke memory that never dies
Yellow roses proclaim friendship and joy
Kiss of flowery scents flares romantic eyes
Garden of carnations amorous souls enjoy

Garnets and Carnations
cut
right and
radiant
deep love and Warmth.
Garnets of red are January’s friend.
 The sweet smell of red carnations drift in the air 
Admiration
is what my 
flower 
Means....

Pink Carnations
For Carole

Whenever there would seem to be
A serious argument between you and me
Or to ease the pain of a fight 
And make the ugly seem the right

I never had a love before
That I could pamper, love, adore...
I thought you understood
Those times that things weren't going...

Carnations and candlelight
black Cadillac Seville sleek
ace of spade fury
six chambers for a lifetime 
to set things just right
bang bang
eight balls ricochetting
bang bang
rack'em up chump
cue sticks red velvety dusted
musk oil grinding virgin blood
diamond dead snake eyes
star mist and streamer
stiletto and sequin
unchain the ceiling
throbbing dreams kneeling
pearls riding...

A simple pleasure in my life, I don’t wish for very much more
Seeing these wonderful blooms when I open my living room door
They brighten up my world, their rainbow colours so gay and bright
Staring at their perfect petals when unfurled is a pure delight
Some have...
