Summer Lillies in a Chorus Line

If Lillies could Fly... they would have Spare Wings... no need to Stop and get a Pair... each time you are stopped in flight...

My "Ward Robe" consists of Layers in Colors that 

define my Mood... usually with a matching Hood... 

Perhaps a Belt to hang my Keys and Pepper Spray.  

For a late Night Out... A Warm Wrap with softly woven 

Lambs Wool to keep the Wolves at Bay... 

An outdoor Concert with Oldies from the Sixties 

in a Bright Red Bravado Convertible with the Top down... 

And if I am Really Lucky... a Fella who will Kiss and Tell... 

Summertime Lillies with soft blown Petals will Keep 

the Secrets of Earth, Wind and Fire Songs that Swing 

Into Tomorrow where Pillows of Memories are 

Embroidered in silk threads of Colors of 

Romantic Nights and Pillow Fights.

Dear Pat,
I have no words for the joy felt reading this poem.

"Summertime Lillies with soft blown Petals will Keep
the Secrets of Earth, Wind and Fire Songs that Swing"

So beautiful, mystical, magical! You know how to take our breath away with the sheer artistry of words. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas 🎄 ❤

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest DIVYA… a pleasure to know you were charmed by the scent of flowers and romantic overtures. We woke this morning to Wind and Sunshine… no mention of Snow.
You bring so much ❤️ love to all the Poets. You are a Treasure.. wrapped in pretty paper with Tinsel Bows.. Merriest Christmas Eve when Thieves may steal your Heart 💜 by a Warm Fire and Egg Nog sprinkled with Nutmeg.. and a touch of Rum. tenderly, Pat

[AYVID N]

Thank you for the lovely wishes, dear Pat.
I hope you had a beautiful Christmas full of love, and light. May the stars twinkle on with adoration always. Sending you my fondest regards and love today.

your ward robe sounds lovely, all decked out for a outdoor shindig. I love the accessories....especially the "lambswool to keep the wolves at bay"....but even more the Cadillac and oldies melodies with Earth, Wind and Fire...one of my favorites...bringing back those old memorizes of "romantic nights and pillow fights"
Really enjoyed this Pat!
Best, B

dearest Betty… we have our Moments of Fashion in the Shadow of a Sycamore Tree where feathered friends gather for laughter and 💗 love. Thanks for sharing the Earth, Wind and Fire Melodies. tenderly, Pat

[Betty Hermelee]

You're very welcome dear Pat!
Truly

There is a whole lot of summertime going on here Pat. Your poem is packed with thoughts that take me in many directions. I particularly like the references to the sixties which is a period of time when I was young and full of the joys of living. Then there are the lilies with their intoxicating fragrance. How could you possibly not enjoy them? I adore white lilies. Thank you for letting my mind drift to many people and many places. All while I had flowers in my hair. Sending love across the sparkling waters.

dearest Chris… I can imagine you with flowers in your Hair… breathing in the Sea Air. “Consider the Lillies of the Field” my favorite Bible Verse. When Poets get together… they collaborate… so it figures that we would have different ideas. I also appreciate the colored Lillies, such as, bright Orange with yellow stamens…. May your days be blessed. Always, Pat

I have orange lilies in my garden Pat. They are lovely too :)

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Chris... we call the Orange Lillies "Tiger Lillies". Many people have lots of them swaying in the Breeze. They have some subtle black stripes on their Petals (to resemble Tigers). By the way, have you heard the Song by the Artist "Train" by the Title "Drops of Jupiter in her Hair" ? He wrote it for his Mother after she "Passed". Google has a Wonderful Video of "Train" singing the Song while he dances and sings with a small Orchestra. It reminds me of my Mother's Passing. So Heart rendering. hugs, Pat

Thank you Pat, I will take a look:)

I'm glad you didn't mention the naked ladies ( belladonna lilies). Nice feel of hot summer nights Nd pillow fights.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Andrew… I appreciate your Review… I had no Idea that Flowers could be Naked at certain times… Nature is very Risqué…
Lillies can be very Suggestive. Thank you Andrew… tenderly, Pat

[andrew mitchell]

We call em naked ladies in Australia I don't know why or how it originated. And it was and in pillow fights.

[Ranger Kessel]

A nice walk through of a dream and wishes. I enjoyed reading this

[Patricia Wedel]

Thank you Ranger… I am always thinking of Flowers and Birds or Kids and often include Poets also and other Artists as well. Gently, Pat

A lot of summertime imagery in this one. Liked especially the part about the fella who will kiss and tell. Also glad you keep the pepper spray with you. You never know who is about on summer nights.

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest John... you are a Gem to leave a review. I miss the Drive-in Theatre's carefree "bring your own Popcorn and Pillows and the Kids dressed in Jammies"
Getaway. When the Kids fall asleep there is no room to "Move". Humor is always the best... gently, Pat

[Patricia Wedel]

Wishing you Summer Nights under the Stars...
in a Drive-in OutDoor Theatre with Kisses
wrapped in Silver and Bear Hugs... in Moonlight...
