Orchid Blooms In My Garden Poem by Valsa George

Orchid Blooms In My Garden

Rating: 4.9


On a bright morning I was greeted warm
By a host of flowers of the self same hue
Smiling disarmingly from an orchid wild
With their white petals washed in dew

Amid the vernal green, they shone radiant
Like scattered stars bursting the seams of the sky
Airily they poised on their delicate stems
Waving at me from their stations high

Scattered here n' there, not in neat array
They verily had an unusual charm.
Chanting in chorus, songs of lilting tunes,
They put my weary heart into a state of calm.

Had no idea from where they had come
Never had I seen the plant in bud before
They appeared abrupt as under a magic spell
I could count not one but a hundred more

Like festoons hung down from the turquoise sky,
They dangled down, bathed in sun's early rays.
As they stood nodding at every gust of wind,
I stayed nonplussed admiring their simple grace.

A brilliant and spontaneous expression of owe and wonders at Nature's wonders. All the five quatrains express themselves so well with the second and the fourth lines rhyming discreetly.

Verses as beautiful as the sunbathed orchids. The last stanza depicts a particularly beautiful imagery!

A poem that is as beautiful as the flowers themselves. It has lovely lines like in a lilting song: 'Like festoons hung down from the turquoise sky' We doff our hats at a truly gifted poet! .
