Dainty whorls of lace
Charm borrowed from a fairy face
Petals of pearly delight
A poet's giddy flight
A lover's teasing weapon
An unfurling of wild imagination
A close-knit ethereal dream
Colours trailing from a prismatic stream
All these and much more...
But not 'paper flowers' as some like to call it.
have lot of good memories of evry weekend gifting carnations

ReplyDeleteReally lovely! I like the line "a poet's giddy flight"
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful poem ! I love carnations. I am used to red carnations. But this colour is beautiful. It's more delicate.
