They blossom in the flowery garden <br />elaborating on details of colours <br />and the sweet fragrance of nature <br /> <br />In the corner <br />There lies the African Lily <br />Secret love of the nile <br />Swimming across many miles <br /> <br />The lily of the valley <br />whose tears <br />are washed beneath the earth <br />stands near the sunflower <br />who is filled with pride and power <br /> <br />The flowery garden displays <br />clones of different species <br />of a thousand lillies <br />representing life's symbolic gifts <br /> <br />perfumed air <br />sweet scents <br />rising from a flowery tent <br />as the roses auction <br />their coloured petals <br /> <br />A moment of ecstasy <br />reveals the orchid as it articulates <br />its blissful departure to the only Sweat Pea <br /> <br />Copyright 2005 - Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/flowery-garden/
