Song of The Golden Shower No 2: ABBA

Nature goes on living with the ... neglects,
sprung the lands that I would say, Namaste,
stretched from lands that were Siam to Malay,
Golden Shower Tree spreads out its respects.
Stately endurance breadth branches outward,
it's somewhat outstanding ornamental,
from the tropics to the subtropical,
nicknamed the pudding piped purging showered.
Early part of the year sprays will flower,
and carpenter bees are pollinators.
People eat flowers, livestock leaf-eaters,
green leaves that yellow flowers will cover.
Medicinal and herbal properties,
Opulent indulgence amenities.

I have around 29 different roses in my garden.. which is a bit neglected now.. I like you sonnet, especially the last couplet how it rhymes... Always learn something from these.. all the best..

Thank you, Silent One, for not being so, --mute but share-full. Aloha, William
