Pink Lilies
The pink lilies cluster together as if they were in a hug
tall and gallant posed they are breathtaking beautiful
with a friendly yellow stigma and rusty red filament
lively colors that brighten the day with a sweet smile.
The first year they seemed to crawl out of the earth
breaking from the soil so small and delicate but pretty
The second year juvenile growth a little taller more full
the pink petals ever so playful and lush.
Year three proud and full, high and showy
from a few to a bunch reaching up saying hello world
Here we are in full radiance of nature's glory
our satin pink petals force a touch to realize real indeed.
The pink lilies get lots of complimentary comments
bringing satisfaction to a gardener's pride
Bought from PCH trying to win five grand a week for life
never win those prizes but never lose for every spring a winner.
