My Camellia Tree

bigwolf

Close to my back door

Near the corner of my house

There stands a tall camellia tree

And it blooms a brillant white

In the Fall

 

As the winds begin to blow

The tree surrenders it's beauty

And soon the petals descend

Looking like snowflakes

Upon my lawn

    From a Gardenia to the Camillia beautiful.

    Thank you for your comments. When I was so much younger, we had a magnolia tree in our yard. I fell in love with those trees and it is still a love affair I continue to this day. Honeysuckles and wild roses are tied for a nice second.

    I knew I'd find you in the nature section. I loved the way it reads. I can picture the ground covered with the petals. diamond
