Little Tiny White Things

Lorna



All the flowers of Spring

All the little white things

Some grow here and some far

But wherever they are

They sing to our hearts in the mornings

 

Artists may flourish

And gardeners may nourish

But they charm as they relish

The sun and they cherish

Their freedom

 

Their little lives short

They won't come to naught

Sing their songs and their praise

As they cover our graves

When the time comes

    A fine write and song of edel-wotsit Laura - a fairly long word there! lol

    • Lorna

      I'm Lorna but you can call me Laura Wotsit...........

      • orchidee

        Oops sorry Lorna Wotsit!

        • Lorna

          That's better........ if you are giving me points for the Great Upstairs I want my name spelled correctly....... and don't tell me you don't do that because I believe you have a direct dialing line.............with a bright red telephone.......

          • orchidee

            Call me anything - within reason. But today's 'don't-call-me-that-name' is Freda! lol.

            • Lorna

              And DON'T call me late for dinner..........

              • Accidental Poet

                Dinner? Who's doing the cooking, Orchi? Uh oh...there'll be swooning in the kitchen tonight!

                • Lorna

                  Yes but he can't sing or he curdles the milk............

                  • Accidental Poet

                    And that direct line upstairs may go temporarily disconnected.

                    • Laura🌻

                      Laura Wotsit here! Someone calling my name?🎶

                      • Lorna

                        Orchi can't get you out of his mind.............. we should spell it "Laurna"

                        • Laura🌻

                          I guess I made an indelible mark on him, “Laurna”!😉

                          • Accidental Poet

                            Oh no, here comes the swooning.

                                Flowers are nice to look at. At first I did not know why people obsess over gardens, but after see one once, now I know.

                                • Lorna

                                  Oh go and see some more!!!! They are so good for you!

                                  • ForeverJesus7

                                    If you ever go to Pittsburgh, Pa, make sure you go to the Phips Conservatory. It is literally wild. They have just about every plant in the world. Make sure you bring a camera if you go.

                                    An intriguing plant and a beautiful write Lorna
