What's Your Story, Morning Glory

Blue Morning Glories
sway on their vine,
dance in the wind,
looking divine.

In the morning
droplets of dew
rest on their petals,
bluer than blue.

Turning their faces
toward the sun,
bright in the morning
then evening they're done.


     Here is a quick challenge.  See how many different kinds of flowers you can name in a minute.  Make a list.  Now select one flower from your bouquet and write your poem about that flower today.  Have fun and if you'd like to share your poem, please leave it in the comments.

  4. Dear Joy,
    A beautiful poem for one of my favorite blooms.
    Mine are purple and pink; the baby-blue hue is so soft and delicate. And the burst of light radiating from the depth of its centre... simply glorious and oh so JOYFUL!
    Thank you.
