Welcome 2022!

 #DailyFlowers

The yearly clock has turned and 2021 is in the rear view and 2022 has marched in! Well, here's hoping for a year that will be: gentler, Covid-free, more empathetic, more filled with kindness towards fellow beings irrespective of birth, caste, color, creed, community, race, religious affiliations, societal standing, and more humane than the last! That the economy will come back on the rails and employment generation will happen soon. That sanity will pervade all spheres of life and hatred be replaced by love and peace. A lesson that nature and flowers give to us everyday! They do not differentiate, it is time humans learnt the lesson and followed it. 

But what do you do, when the rhymes you wrote end up split across 2 frames; you pile them higgley-piggley on one another and hope the words work their magic!

A beauty comes you all to greet
Spreading joy as it meets
Lovely peach out to surprise
Revel in a new day's sunrise
A robust orange-yellow boost
This winter morn has come to roost
Such vividness on display
Adding vibrancy to this Tuesday!
Flowers are constant
Uplifting our moods in an instant
Glowing brighter on winter morns
As a slightly foggy day is born

On one hand were mums going strong for a week
On the other was a hibiscus lovingly framed
Added in were lovely maroons that the eye did seek
Truly gorgeous blooms well deserving of their acclaim

If winter comes can roses be far behind
True gems did Shalini, June and Ranjona find
Pinks & whites did gardens grace
Dark reds, light pinks, lavenders did joyfully embrace

 And Yash's garden with lilies did burst
Their buds she with great care did nurse
A beautiful peach came to glow
Perfectly tinged it stole the show

Vivek is still on his Europe trip
From there lovely flowers he did clip
Lovely deep mauve did Deepak & Shantha share
That pink edged white only added to the air

Whites, blues-tans, deep pinks did pose
Each pix to its fame rose
A starburst with a yellow center
Invited delightful fragrance to enter

Colors, fully bright did in march
So crisp, seemed nature did them starch
As the previous year did draw to a close
Flowers brought forth poetry from prose

The Brahmakamal, a white beauty bright
Seems to mimic stars in sight
Contrasted with oranges and reds
Takes this frame far, far ahead

Pink white flowers and orange bunches
Remind a hungry blogger of delicious lunches
I did ask Udayji if the orange was candy floss
The blooms are quite the boss!
