Azaleas putting on spring frocks,
Bluebells holding up their heads.
Columbine blooming 'neath the sun,
Daffodils springing from their beds.
Everlasting's new in spring,
Fig Marigolds gaily attired.
Goat's Rue coming through the soil,
Hyacinths keeping us inspired.
Iris, most beautiful of all,
Jasmine listening to spring's sounds.
King's Spear pointing at everything,
Lilac brighter than surrounds.
Meadowsweet as sweet as sugar,
Narcissus, dainty and refined.
Orange blossoms scent the air.
Peony as bright as one can find.
Quaker Lace is in the woods,
Rhododendron does not know where to hide.
Sweet William is as sweet as ever.
Trilliums brightening countryside.
Umbrella Magnolia weeps,
Violets so sweet and shy.
Water Lily in the pond,
Xerophyte is standing by.
Yucca growing tall and wide,
Zantedeschia by her side.
