Fiery Plumes

Happy are the tulips!
Their silken pedals sing!
Fragrant wine; to sip,
Cup of love; to bring!
Array of flowers; give,
To each and all of man.
Inspiring words; to live!
Musical lives; to plan!
Connected stoic plumes,
Reflecting Holy shine!
Positive soul, then grooms,
Testaments; of divine!
Fiery plumes; the story,
Intoxicating glory!

I always buy my wife tulips. Not sure if she actually likes them, but it's the thought that counts I suppose.
I enjoyed your poem Jim.

Lovely lovely and really lovely Jim. ...Good to see you x
hi Marion! glad you liked it and thank you bunches!
Hello Jim, my husband use to always bring me tulips. I adore them. This just brought me a warm glow to read. Thank you for sharing the beauty of such a flower and the power of nature xΒ
my pleasure Gwen! thank you so much for your support!
thank you bunches Greg!
What a lovely write Jim. Tulips don't grow much here in Aus, the most I've ever seen was when I went to Washington DC not too far from the Arlington national cemetery. Either way I really enjoyed reading this one my friend. Hope you are doing well!
thank you Max for the support! hope you are prospering! really cool you saw DC! I saw it as a kid and have fond memories! all thoughΒ I heard it is a rough town now. our government is getting very corrupt and our main stream media is corrupt, but our people are mostly still trying! The big cities are most of the problem. sad stuff ! I love watching Youtube vids about Down Under!
Smooth verse Jim. Excellent as always.

thanks bunches JP!
The reason why our country (Holland) is always covered with them in the season - too many grumpies to blind to see the beauty and inspiration π Love thisΒ
thank you John, they are wonderful to see!

thank so much Liliana! I don't, but I will look it up!
Jim, it's good to be back and with an engaging sonnet to meet and greet.
And such a cleverly and deftly written one at that, a story within a story, potential within potential.
Masterfully imagineered and displayed and as this so so poets memory recalls your word length is much more shorter than your sonnets of past.
Less is more so to speak and cut to the chase when called upon.
Great write my friend and thank you again, not just for writing a touch of class message poem, but of the good virtue's occurring and transpiring within recent messages.
Thanks Jim for writing and that much needed moral support.
All good and never forgotten.
thank you Shaun! trying to grow as a poet!
