Best Freesias Poems

Flowers speak
the Gladiola is never sad
says words with a smile.

Tulips are the pun
not one but...
sound it out, you'll see.

Daisies reveal secrets
she loves me,
she loves me not.

Buttercups
lay it on thick
compliment everyone.

Carnations rev their engines. 
Express themsleves from land to land.

Freesias 
my personal favorites 
blow a fragrant...

What a wonderful time nature will bring

this exceptional season we call Spring,

sounds of birds, amazing aromas, smells

beautiful cowslips, primrose and bluebells,

fresh feel in the air,green shoots of new crops

colourful tulips, pansies, and snowdrops,

misty mornings, dew on the lush green grass

trumpets of daffodils, tulips, crocus,

warmth from...

Each season spans a quarter of a year
cold winter days can bring pure white snow,
Wintry sunshine makes snowflakes disappear
but little children don’t want the snow to go!

Spring breezes in, making the gardens bright
fragrant freesias release their sweet smell,
Many colorful flowers bring such delight
I can almost...

Sue made her bouquet from cottage garden flowers
To find matching blooms took her several hours

There were nine pretty roses in a shade of pale gold
Such a delicate fragrance they’re a joy to behold

Lilac and lemon freesias looked so bright and gay
They’d bring subtle colour to...

The cloying sangria
of freesias
invades the screen.
Amber bees whine
in wastrel air
like breezeless fans.
My shirt 
is porcelain skin.
I dangle one metronome leg
off the arm
of a wicker chair
on the porch
as icebox rivulets
trickle down my sides.
In a far corner
dead flowers 
curl
in a glass vase....

Rain, I adore, I impatiently wait for,
Like a wife awaits her husband from war.

Sloshing, splashing scintillating drops,
Soothing my skin with hopes
along with my smudged heart,
Rain, my first love, my sweetheart.

Laying on the gullible grass,
Staring at the sublime sky,
Thinking of life's dreams made of glass,
As the...

Floriography

Allamanda in April slowly open its trumpets around posts that look like 
Buttercups of honey for bees to dive in to replenish their striped bellies
Crocus's yellow stigmas that flavour our food are a blessing by Hermes, but
Dead Nettle is hardly so dead with her fuschia...

The cheerful freesias peep
Out of the cold wet soil
And share their fruitful fragrance
With lovers of the moon.

Spring is already with us
Mimosas form their blooms
We celebrate Women's Day
And sprays will abound I'm sure.

Oh everyone is happy
Except our poor Josefa
Who works in snowbound Snowbird Utah
And yearn for...

What I Love About Spring

At the astronomical vernal equinox
Appears the first signs of spring.
A new breath of life
When winter’s snow completes its ageing.
I love the yellow daffodils
And the perfumed aroma
 Of white and yellow freesias
Along with other budding flora and fauna.

I know some asthma folks
Have...

I don’t want flowers at my funeral
I should add this too my will
What use are they to me when I am dead
I’d prefer them now if I were ill

I love their sheer beauty
This no one can disguise
The scent of a bunch of freesias
Brings tears to...

Beautiful blue buddleia
brimming with bejeweled butterflies
which flutter frequently from branch to branch

Fabulous freesias
sensationally scented
perfumed perfection

Ruby red rambling roses
dainty daffodils and jaunty jonquils
colourful crocus and charming celandines
blooms bring breathtaking beauty
glorifying Gertrude’s garden
horticultural heaven!

Pretty freesias in my garden
oh what a stunning sight,
their scent is so alluring
with petals of pure white 

But glancing at my diary
it’s autumn and not spring,
I wonder if their appearance
is down to global warming

I’ve got freesias in flower they may look stunning but it’s totally...

once aboard the desert submarine
anchored by the golden sundial
outlandish and phosphorescent
we crossed the greatness 
of many drowned landscapes
fluxes of algae and shrewish freesias
cloistering up
dans le château à la lune
where the ragman’s lantern announces
the arrival of the fearful butter knight
he’s tattered and salted
the endangered specimen
straight from...

Artificial blooms cause delight!
Exquisite freesias, geraniums, hellebores
Iris, jasmine, kaffir lilies. 
My neighbour Oscar
plants quirky realistic stems.
Transplanting unkempt verges
with xanthic yellow zinnias.

SONG TO MOON

Moon ! Light of Shadows 
    Luminosity of strengthening black bows
       tears of trite nights
                   ...
