Small Glories, Deep Stories

 #DailyFlowers

 Tales that flowers tell; stories that pix weave; into all of this jumps the blogger to add words that would rhyme indeed. Life goes on, went the well known song, flowers have been epitomizing it all along. It was us that were deaf and blind, Covid showed us how to be kind. Self centered we did become to protect us and ours, but in need we did step up to care for more than powers... Another spaces was held and done, more songs from newer members sung, tales came from hither and thither, cares and worries did together whither... concerns raised, concerns valid, whether humanity will remain solid! Parents, siblings, children, gone, gone too soon, gone without just cause! Will humanity unite and join to heal, will voices rise and peal...

Glory oh Glory
The purples tell a deep story
Mayhaps the flowers bloom
Forming a variegated blushing plume
Coming from here and there
To tell us of Nature's love and care
Encourage us her glories to share

Shashi, he of the back to office fame
Has now begun another game
He visited another county
To harvest its generous bounty
Lovely colors in full play
Putting up a rambunctious display

Name of the orange beauties is not known
But they are proudly shared and shown
Blooms mysterious, but so delightful
Charge our lives make them less frightful

In different shades comes the Madhumalti dear
What pleasure it gives when it blooms near
Its presence and fragrance do to the occasion rise
The many colors just increase the vividness of surprise

A dear friend in Malaysia is stuck
Clicks flowers to activate his luck
Mayhaps he will then be able to come home
Where we all will then be free to roam
Covid won't have us housebound
And friends and loved ones can gather around

 I sit by the window thinking out loud
Of words that best suit the flowery crowd
Cheerful, and soft, a colors cloud
Colors to cheer by, a medley that shouts
Look at me! I am small but bright
Look at me shining in the light!

From colors bright to colors soft
But all driving our spirits aloft
Nature is sometimes perfection sheer
Its shapes and sizes give us much to cheer

From Whites to Red did Shalini swing
Much joy to us did the blooms bring
Showed us nature's majesty grand
Its humblest forms do take a mighty stand

 A yellow spread
Always marches ahead
The brilliance of the sun
With its many hues is having fun

The common and uncommon do well blend
In their beauty ours hearts do mend
Single flowers with immense power
Grace on us bountifully shower

June sent in blooms glorious
In little seen hues wondrous
Gold, oranges, pinks, lavender-whites joust
Glories and stories of spring espouse

Little white glories filling the tree
They are on a mad blossoming spree
Like so many twinkling stars
They can be espied from afar
