SAY IT WITH FLOWERS ~ Collaboration ~ CHRISTINA & BRIAN

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

 

TULIPS FROM AMSTERDAM ! 

 

ROSES are a lovely Flower

From bud to fully blown 

Symbol of ENGLAND's fading power

Yet still the RED ROSE proudly shown !

ROSES RED for Love & Passion

For LOVERS never out of Fashion !

 

TULIPS can be any color

Special flower ~ unlike another

In Flower Galas ~ special place

For TULIPS with a Lady's grace

GOD's perfection stem to bloom 

Send me a Bouquet and I'll swoon !

 

SNOWDROPS peeking through the snow

Tell me Winter soon will go !

No flowers seen since late November 

SNOWDROP explosion I remember

A sign to me from Heaven above

SPRING SEASON of our Blossoming love !

 

LILAC is my favorite flower ~ intense

It has the most alluring scent

I long for MAY to come around

When sight & scent of LILAC can be found

Indoors in a special vase are some

A fragrant memory of my MOM !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love CHRIS & BRIAN

Every Flower has Special Memory what's your favorite ? 

 

Each Poem is a SEXTET with variable  rhyme pattern

      As you know by my picture lilacs are my favorite and always will be. I think we did a pretty good job with this. I wish lilacs came more than once a year!--sisterly hugs, Christina

      Good write Brian & Santita! So you're swooning too! I'm gonna sign it, oh no: 'Tulips from Hamster-dam' lol.

      • BRIAN & ANGELA

        Very lovely as always brother Brian. I'm taking great care of a little tree that has dark foliage and has Gorgeus red clustered flowers. It is called black diamond rose. It is beautiful indeed. My competition is the little spiders that leaves a disease on the plant. Thanks for this beautiful poem.

          OBRIGADO ~ IRMA MALU ~ Plants are important in my life too! I'm in a FLAT but I help my MUM & DAD with their GARDEN ~ we have a POND with a Waterfall and a Weeping Willow which is my fave TREE. In Gardens & Life & Love ~ Sempre ha Aranhas para lidar com ! Abrajos e Beijos de teu Irma CHRISTINA e teu Irmao BRIAN XOXOX

            MIRAS FLORES ~ HERMANA CHRISTINA ! Separately we chose FOUR very different Flowers ~ but by the miracle of COLLABORATION we produced something very beautiful ! As Santita noted I too think FLOWERS was a perfect TOPIC for us ! Thanks for caring and sharing ~ comigo ~ AMOR
            ~ HERMANO BRIAN ~ XOXOXO

          • Michael Edwards

            Great collab - I too like Lilacs but such a short flowering period 0 oh well you can't have it both ways.

            • BRIAN & ANGELA

              THANKS MICHAEL ~ Pleased you liked it ~ it takes more effort than going solo ~ BUT~ in my experience the outcome more than justifies the effort ! I agree with your sentiment about the Lilacs ~ beautiful things (and experiences) are often transient ! Yours CHRISTINA and BRIAN

            • avigail

              love flowers no matter their names, their colors or size.
              thanks for inviting me to read Brian .. feel the harmonic aroma , hugs

              • BRIAN & ANGELA

                THANKS AVI ~ Collaborations are fun because they are ONE on ONE but the WHOLE POEM is always greater than just the SUM of the STANZAS ~ When I Collaborate we (in this case Christina & I) agree the TITLE ~ number of STANZA ~ and POETIC STYLE (length of stanza and rhyme pattern etc) We then agree Subject and Order. We then share drafts ~ edit and agree final POEM and then post on MPS. CHRISTINA and I are 3800 miles apart so we do all this electronically ! Thanks for caring and contributing Love & Hugs ~ BRIAN XOXOX
