Sampaguita (Philippine National Flower) Poem by Noel Horlanda
Sampaguita (Philippine National Flower)
Perfumes starry night
wafts the air, florid scent
wraps round svelte neck
of a Lady’s knight
Moonless, moonlight tale
yet reflects its shadow lake
redolent smell spreads ov’r
bites evening mighty spell
Twilight shower bakes
early mornin’ dew atop
tiny white petals
looks like icing on cakes
Sweet scented floras
its caramel fragrance
sticks one’s sallow skin,
creates bright auroras
Teeny weenie fingers
sews mini whites together
soon digital strings on sight
hangs like bell ringers!
Early dawn comes
elate childish smiles,
vie to sell round churchyards
A few, a plenty welcomes
Lovely sampaguita, delightful
Adorable you may be
A lady in laces waiting
Gentlemen swarm undoubtful
Its freshness makes nostril flares
relieves stress for surely,
arrogant minds pacified
then tranquility bares
Infants, old timers, adolescents
round the elliptic bush, plucks
metal petal gathers copiously,
threaded together like fluorescents
Carved in various forms
bracelets, necklaces, lei
worn by a lovely dame
lookin’ out window’s dorm
Sampaguitas, flourish ev’r
immaculate white, eternal
A jewel in her own way,
as nite’s tempest, nev’r!
She’s pure and innocent,
Brilliant, incandescent
wonderful combination between epithets, similes and visual metaphors, like: '''Sampaguitas, flourish ev’r immaculate white, eternal A jewel in her own way, as nite’s tempest, nev’r! '' wonderful descriptive poem for sampaguita.............10
