Spoken Message From Flowers

Flowers come in all assortment, each has a message to bring!

 

Flowers grace every corner of the greenhouse.

Array of colors as soft and beautiful as a springtime rainbow.

The brilliant appearance was breathtaking as an early morning sun rise splashing the sky.

 

She stood just inside the greenhouse.

The delicate blooms whisper to her,

a language all their own.

Each flower holds a special place in her breaking heart.

The gorgeous earth apparel with their sweet fragrance

beckons to her.

 

Tears puddle her cheeks as she fingers the Lavendar Rose flower.

The scent tickles her senses.

Love at first sight it speaks to her.

Cupid's arrow hit her right in the heart the first time she laid eyes on the man she now calls her husband.

 

General Primrose, he gave her one night.

He whispered, "I love you and can't live without you."

She had flushed with joy as he bent down on one knee,

held out a Spider Flower and asked, "will you marry me?"

With a solid color Carnation in full bloom, she had held out to him and whispered, "yes."

 

Peony Flowers decorated the church for their wedding,

tells of a happy marriage and life they are going to have.

Honey Suckle Flowers entwined in her hair symbolized their bond of love.

 

Bird Of Paradise he gave her on their ninth wedding anniversary was romantic and beautiful.

Passion Flowers Showered their bed as he laid her down and made passionate love to her.

 

She stops in front of the Purple Hyacinth that conveys the message I'm sorry.

Gathering a bundle, she holds them to her heart.

Pain chokes the breath from her chest.

If only to be given the chance to speak her own words of sorry,

turning to leave she stops as she sees him standing there with a

bundle of Purple Hyacinth flowers.

 

Moment by moment a flower is given out of love.

A symbol of affectionate, passion and romance.

A breezing fragrance that can speak softly and tenderly to a soul.

Author's Note

Did research on flowers and learned that they have different messages! So I decided to write a poem on flowers and what they speak. This is my third rewrite. Hope you like and tell me what you think!

I never thought of flowers having different messages, but that doesn't sound farfetched. Every flower is unique, there are so many kinds. So why shouldn't they bear messages, like we do? Marvelous idea! (:

ahh very well researched here then! flowers have so many connotations both spiritually, personally and literarily!! well tapped into - the message of the flowers - the stories written in petals! nice!

[Crowley]

Oh man, I loved this. I love flowers and my wife loves to garden and there is nothing better than spending time out there in the springtime. And why wouldn't flowers have their own secret code....they have everything you need to take on gorgeous personalities...color, fragility, poise, brevity.....its all there and the code must live...great writing.

This is a beautiful tale spun with the use of flower and scent. The power of scent can be a strong one and it can remind us of different people and moments in our lives. The imagery was done wonderfully.

[Poeticadia]

A beautiful array of flowers all with their own messages, some passionate, some happy and some so very sad.

Flowers express so much. I never understand people who refuse to buy them.
