Best Floral Poems
Floral TapestryI reminisce of childhood prowls, the mild
Unfolding through lustrous summer sways
That in my past, musings replay when twigs
Are sprinkled with blossoms rare like
pearls. I find myself wandering downstream
On banks wading softly, entranced along
fresh shrubs…a vignette of burlap and silk,
Rustling like bright confetti that often
Fine dewdrops...

Floral ExpanseFloral expanse
Roses in vivid colours that smiled in glamour,
Red blood to be garlanded at valour,
White lilies bunching hearty and serene,
Catching lovers' fancy to the extreme,
Lavenders at the crest of mountains,
Challenging beauties of the terrains,
Merrigolds shining bright with sunrise,
Worshipping aroma to no surprise,
Dahlia, orange and yellow...

Floral FarewellVelvet red roses stand
cheek to cheek
with daisy faces, ringed
in petal fringes,
sweetly scented
by creamy bubbles
of double jonquil popcorn blooms
beside a starburst
yellow chrysanthemum,
and long leaves
squeezed between.
Below, their stem-straws blur
in the ribbed glass jar,
looped with a satin orange bow
for your 97 years
we must farewell soon.
The...

The Girl In Floral DressOn a bright sunday afternoon
Roaming market in search of mushroom
I was about to reach when I saw a girl
her skin was white golden hairs with curl
I didn‘t stop but my heart did
I rushed behind a car and hid
Through the window I gazed as she walked
her...

Floral ScenesSomehow a scene from girlhood days
Will flit across my hazy mind;
To lead me down enchanting ways
I thought I had once left behind
Of Grandma's touch… so sweet and kind.
Her garden floats on dappled stream
Where trees callow burst into leaf,
Our hands gather the blooms, agleam
Which paint...

FloralWise words work well
Trust time that tells
Meet mind most meek
Strange spice soon seeks
Loud laughs lure looks
Bright boom binds book
Feel fine floral
Choice charms choral
Ply prompt pure peace
Etch etch earns ease
Set soft sure say
Delight dream day

Floral Gold of ShadesSwaying fields of buttercup and yarrow
Lavish goldenrod and dandelions
Wild outside my garden walls
Protective of their independence
And carefree wanton ways
Yet bemused by how
Just over yonder
the other half lives
Flirtatious gloriosa daisies
Alluring yellow columbine
Coquettish gerbera daisies
Provocative flutterbye roses
Sultry golden feverfew
Sweet carolina jessamine
Bewitching black eyed...

Floral HeartAs summer turns to fall; a chill moves through the air,
The beauty of nature; like those of flowers; are in their final days,
Such delicate ones; who call outdoors their home,
Their roots engraved into the ground,
The sun is their nurturer; who showers them with life,
To grow;...

Floral PlayScent of floral buzz,
Dash of fleeting time;
Smell the morning gush,
Heed the playful chimes.
Plumeria surprise,
By this walkway stuff;
White floral advice,
Fragrant sure enough.
Sunbeams flood new light,
Awesome colours fling;
Conscious curious flight,
Watch the choral sling.
Old memories come,
Rush of past charades;
Pungent poignant psalms,
Words move lyric trade.
Linger and loiter,
Take fond mornings...

An Autumn Floral DisplayWhat a great grandma I have.
Flowers come natural to her.
Now why can’t I too
Have green fingers like her?
End of September is the beginning of Fall.
Yellow sunflowers lower their head,
Harvest will start to produce oil.
My grandma has a few and a producer
Always comes to gather the...
