Iris, <br />you're so tall <br />and slim <br />with your golden <br />crown <br />standing by the waters <br />edge, <br />your long limbs <br />reaching down. <br /> <br />Rooted to the spot <br />you are <br />stately, elegant <br />and proud, <br />gathered by th margin, <br />growing with the crowd.<br /><br />Sally Plumb Plumb<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/yellow-iris/
