My Bouquet

Coiffed in bouquets-my flowers and roses,
every color presents a meaning;
indigo, ivy, and yellow daffodils
charming red, to flame the feelings.

Red is passion, love and energy,
orange summons moments of happiness.
Yellow's clarity, gold, and truth while
blue enhances the dreamer's calmness.

What a lovely title and in the poem you have indeed presented a bouquet of colors explaining what each stands for....pretty innovative...

i think it would read even better if you change the end of Vesrses 2 & 4 in Stanza 2...ofcourse that's just a suggestion...wait to hear others..

Regards,

Thank you raj

for the compliment. It is always great to hear from you.
I don't think I need to worry about the endings of those lines as near rhymes are acceptable in such a non-strict form.
Again your thoughts are always appreciated.

Blue Orchids...

WalMart had them on sale here...
color not created with dye but genes..

if we can see...the beauty
that is there...
