    Petaled leafs
    Dashened Pink
    Rosy white
    Floral green
    Loosened in fours
    Upon its stalk
    scented strength
    fills up the air
    Sweetened smell
    There lay a bunch
    A floral scene
    Upon its waters
    Or else indoors.

    blue stars growing out of the dust,
    delicate and tiny,
    yet they live on,



    having a go at poetry/prose/or whatever you would call my attempt!
    And, sorry, I can't guess yours, Nacian, unless its a rose? but that seemed too obvious?
    Thank you

    Zedten,
    Was it a forget-me-not?

    A flower, eh?
    Okay here's one I wrote a few years ago, I'll leave the give-away title off:

    Fat red bloodsacs weigh on each arching stem
    their heaviness pulling to the earth
    purses open and dainty dancers spring along
    each greened bough
    a panoply of permanent pirouettes.

    The dancers skirts fade and blemish
    and each Columbine falls exhausted to lie
    crushed and dead on dark hued earth
    discarded partners to cruel Harlequin.

    Mine was Fuchsias:

    Do we go again?
    If we do, I'll have to think one up in a hurry, I think that fuchsias one is all I have ready done.
    By the way is the point to be poetic, or accurate?
    Just wondering...

    I always think they are like little ballerinas, hence the Columbine and Harlequin connection.

    I love the scent of fresh lilies. Heady.

    Okay.... lets see...

    Great high head, heavy with seed
    Tall slim stem, strong in the wind
    Petals; yellow, thin - long as a finger
    Seeds set to dance to a Fibonacci tune
