Dahlia by the Door

Dahlia

Dahlia you look so delicate,
Dressed  in very light  pink.
Petals perfectly poised.
So well , they interlink!
Pretty as a pinwheel.
Your beauty  brightens my day.
Glad to make your acquaintance,
This beautiful morning in May!

To the Blossoming Bush Along the Way

Blossoming Bush
Blossoming Bush


Little bush I know not your name,

Though twice a day I pass you by.
May I stop to admire you,
Who I can’t identify?
For your presence brightens up my path,
As I walk along the way,
and your white starry blossoms,
Seem to only flower in May.
Thanks for the beauty you add to my day!

Wild Rose,what a fragrant lady you are,
all dressed so pretty in pink.
Your stamens at me do blink
and flutter as lashes in the wind.
The sun kisses you good morning
as you guard the pathway gate.

Pretty Pansies

Pretty Pansies against the fence,
smiling at me this first May Day.

I had to stop to admire you ,
all dressed in colors of pink, yellow and blue.

You posed for me, and seemed to say,
“Take our picture before we fade away!”
