I woke up on winter mornings
And always felt so bad
I got sick of having sleepless nights
I went and told my Dad.
He said girl you have to wait until summer
And I will stick something on the wall
And at the end of June he put the pictures up
And I don’t feel bad at all.
Pictures of Lilies make my life so wonderful
Pictures of Lilies help me sleep at night
Pictures of Lilies solved my puppy problems
Pictures of Lilies helped me feel alright

And then one day, late summer arrived
After I had fallen in love with Lilies
I asked my dad where Lilies had gone
He said, "Son, now don't be silly
Lilies only bloom in the summertimes”
And, how I cried that night
If only it was summer all the time
It would have been alright
Pictures of Lilies made my life so wonderful
Pictures of Lilies helped me sleep at night
I will see Lilies in my dreams
Where I always see

The Lilies are gorgeous and your poem is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteYou sure have lots of pretty lilies to look at, Ruby Rose.
ReplyDeleteHave always loved day lilies, so many colors, especially when they bloom in masses, planted almost wily-nily ... your poem is charming.
ReplyDeleteRuby Rose,
ReplyDeleteThat was a lovely Nature poem

ReplyDeleteBeautiful poem, Ruby Rose. We have lots and lots of beautiful daylilies that are the favorite food of the local rabbits and deer. They can literally disappear overnight.
