“Miracle Flowers”

Precious beauty to behold

Soft – lovely yet even bold;

Don’t let your fingers touch

Or even think to clutch;

Miracle flowers to now see

Vibrant and so very free;

Fragrantly filling the room

Perfection when they bloom!

“Commonly Called”

(Queen of the Night)

(Selenicereus Grandiflorus)

Wherein is found this flower

only blooming in the night

staying but such time short

gone before the mornings dawn;

 

Frightened as the new fawn

as in Cinderella’s court

a Queen to bring delight

its loveliness its power!
