Paradise Despoiled

My lilies, bruised and holey

Their leaves a tattered mess …

Blame the lily-beetles,

Those devils in a red dress.

Political Parody of Roses Are Red

Roses are red
Lilies are pale
A politician
Should be in jail

(Sorry did I say one politician? I meant most of them)

water lilies…floating, dreamy, sublime—
Monet’s buoyant brush strokes blend
on the Chagres River

Colours and Flowers

scarlet or crimson,
roses or violets 
daffodils or lilies,
colours and flowers add beauty to life.
you are one such flower.

Cosset Lilies

Fragile to the touch,
Bathing in rays open wide,
Closed at star lit eyes.

sweetly
through

Lilies of April

Lilies of April,
seen by a silent parrot,
droop over red vase.


All windows are shut,
no presence of anyone...
who will water them?

Sweet Sun

A beautiful bowl
burning to brighten our world ,
lends light to leaves and lilies;
got glee-giving glow.
The nurse of nature at noon!

After Midnight - (Englyn)

Scores of white lilies bloom - slicing night air
with a deadly perfume.
Nostrils flicker and consume
scented ghosts haunting the room.
