Monday begins Anew & with Onam

 #DailyFlowers

 White yet again, with filaments yellow
These lovely flowers make the viewer a lucky fellow
Two colors bright start the day
Their beauty sparkles all the way.

From Vivek

Pink-green, white-green, red-green
Shades most commonly seen
Mother nature does them most love
They are all around us, below and above
 

From Shalini, chasing away 
Monday blues the pinks chased away
Brilliant colors to brighten the day
Tulips are special flowers,
Like most others they bless humans with their powers.

From Sai, on the occasion of Onam 
Red, pink, yellow, green and purple
Laid out in a beautiful circle
A greeting for Onam
To all, a respectful pranam!

From Shashi,
A combination of burgundy, yellow and white
Armed with a reminder to maintain social distancing right
Local farms have got into the act
They handle it with such grace and tact!

Sunday Beauteous & Bold

 #DailyFlowers

 At a roadside nursery, Nature's palette does preen
In colors wondrous, you may not have before seen
Pix is courtesy a friend who cycling on Gurgaon's roads went
Stopped when he saw the display coz he knew what it to me meant.

 The splatter of taffy on white amid the green
 An interplay of intricate colors seen
Lighting up a Sunday morn
Look, a  bright new hope is born.

From Shalini, a bouquet for Sunday

This lovely bunch all so round
Framed with reds, pinks, light creams and greens
Us with its beauty does surround
And brightens the restful Sunday's sheen.

From Vivek, lovely

These small wildflowers make me really happy
On seeing them I produce rhymes totally sappy
Gardens brighten up homes and spaces
Give us plenty of open air places


From Shashi

A walking path paved with flowers
The  nearby tree on it showers
Petals sprinkled on the ground
Make you look up and all around

From Ashvni, a

Red tinged with yellow
A huge and gorgeous fellow
Captured by a camera loving friend
Flowers bewitch us to no end.

White flowers on a sweet neem tree
Gives us flavorsome leaves all a-free
This used to grow by our gate
Has contributed its goodness to many a plate.

 From Sai,
 Clover or flower
I will leave you to discover
Mauve, white, yellow and green
A more delicate weave has yet to be seen.

Saturday Sprinkled more Pinks

 #DailyFlowers

 One bright pink peeking through the rain
Yay, yippee yay, the grey's gone again
This Saturday morning does on us shower
All that vibrant deep pink power.

 
 Absolutely drenched flowers
The rains are glorying in their power
What they don't know
Is that the blooms can still put up a mighty show.
(From Vivek)
From Shashi, memories in the making
The memory of blooming trees
Through fall and winter will us see
Till spring and summer come back again
And flowers will again burst free
 
Across the world wherever you go
Flowers in myriad colors grow
These come from a friend in Uzbekistan
The universal beauty of nature they do show
Nature blends white and lavender
In ways that just make us wonder
Whither from this beauty came
Am sure, it has its own name and fame.

Yellow, White & Pink an awesome Friday bring

 #DailyFlowers

  Striped and edged with colors mild
Filled with the innocence of a child
Flowers blossom flowers bloom
Lighting up gardens and rooms.


Nature's multi-petaled, multi-layered design
Yellow tinged with pink looks like the sunshine
Crafted delicately for us to wonder
Showcased in gardens through which we meander.

 

I saw this just as I was leaving for the bank
And my mind said to me, Vivek you have to thank
For flowers so sweet as these
Lighting up the day and aiming to us please
Close companions white and yellow flowers
Small blooms but having immense powers.

From Shashi, 

On a gritty paved path lie two lovely blooms
Their vividness sparkles as it chases away the gloom
Full many a heart do they please
And set many minds at ease.
A big yellow
Facing the sun
What a lucky fellow
Admiring it is great fun.

Thursday Twinkled in

 #DailyFlowers

Bunches of brilliant White
Filling the day with a vibrant light
Signalling the start to the day
Welcoming others that come our way.
 
White, white all around
Everywhere you look it can be found
Contrasted with green, takes on a beautiful sheen
A sight as majestic as a queen.

From Vivek, a video

Vivek's flower tree burst out in brilliant Pink
Over two years it did many-a-time make him think
Whether with him it was upset and would or not flower
But one glorious day, it showed its full power.

Shalini reminds us that everything has a role in nature

Each of nature's creations has a reason
It comes to life in its own season
Tells us for everything there is a time and place
Allows us to fully understand its space.

Shashi went a wandering, can I say, and brought in 

A sprig of flowers waving a cheerful hello
The one that was first greeted must be a real lucky fellow
Found dotting the countryside
They light up many a walk and ride.
