Literature Text

If ever in life you have time to spare,
And feel as though you need some air,
Then come and experience the wonderful aura,
Of the vast vibrant garden of Madame Flora.

Here first we have the Roses of red,
The perfect gift for the bride newlywed,
Planted in the fashion of a loving heart,
Now how is that for flower art?

The perennial Daffodils come and go,
Swaying along as the winds do flow,
Beautiful colors of yellow and cream,
Shine in the sun’s golden beam.

The violet Irises grow up tall,
On the sides of the path, like a stretching hall,
Leading up to Flora’s brick-red villa,
But not before passing a patch of vanilla.

Around the villa grow Carnations a-plenty,
The flowers made of colors a-many,
And by the doorway, blasting no notes,
Stand horn-like Lilies, with long opened throats.

Enter the conservatory, where the bright sun shines,
Through a stained-glass dome and panes without blinds,
Great grow the Grasses and Ferns of green,
Around the fountain, where the water flows clean.

Come to the kitchen where the air is spiced,
With nutmeg, pepper, and garlic freshly diced,
Just take a sniff, let it waft into your nose!
But please don’t sneeze on my little primrose.

In Flora’s Garden, you can find it all,
From warming springtime to cooling fall,
So when you have free time on your busy hands,
Come to a paradise of flowery land.
A little poem inspired by a botanical garden I once visited.
