Resilient Flowers

 #DailyFlowers

Sometimes things come in unbidden and they are the sweeter for that! And, they sometimes tend to cluster together, increasing impact. Such has been the week gone by. Sometimes, surprises spring themselves, at times they seem far away. But, such is life, keeping you on the tenterhooks, now complete, now not! Amidst all this, bursts of color dominate, adding a smile and cheer to the days.

Varied roses in beautiful poses
Bringing forth smiles in many doses
In colors vivid, brilliant
A flower so resilient

From flowering trees, under which to chill
To floating blooms that do merrily spill
Into our lives, bringing forth beauty bright
A combination that lights up the sight
A blushing bud ready to unfurl
But for the now petals tightly curled

Purple, pinks, whites and yellows
In the garden and wild, amazing fellows
In much glee they did dance
Along with the wind they did prance
Inviting our repeated glance
Their beauty holding us in trance

From western lands come tulips fair
Line by line matched up to pair
With pathways, gardens and walks
Merrily do they dance on their slender stalks

Yellows bright do always delight
There's something very soothing about the sight
Gentle reds do with them team
Alongside the greens, a vivid scene

A variety of whites, interspersed with reds & black
Myriad blooms picking up the slack
No season without them is complete
Everyday, new hues us greet

Flowers seeking attention
Increasing our retention
Of their beauties, they sing
Peace and joy they bring
Lilies across highways/gardens were found
Across the country they do abound
In hues gentle and bold
Flowers epitomize the gold

Colors delicate, colors bright
Together they make a charming sight
Flowers never fail to cheer
Everyone far and near, close and dear
