Pollination Poem by Douglas Nichols

Pollination

Rating: 5.0


Each little flower
Bathes in the sun's shower,
Reflecting a wavelength of light.

Radiantly it beams,
Attracting small winged things...
Offering them drinks of delight.

In exchange for the treat,
Pollen beads onto their feet
And is carried to the next feeding place

Where some rubs off the bead,
Causing mixture of seed...
Allowing the flower to continue its race.

Wonderful thoughts on pollination. I would love to include this in my garden club's yearbook next year. The theme for next year is 'The Year of Pollinating Plants'.
