Gerbera

My passion

 

You are a treasure of color and fashion,

Gerbera,you are my love and passion.

 

I feel a great joy and mood of freedom,

When you greet everyone with your blossom.

 

I love   the play of morning breeze with you,

When it sways your petals with  shining dew.

 

Your beauty  can charm the old and young,

You tie a pair of amorous man and woman.

 

A home glitters  with your lovely  smile,

Your garden invites bee and butterfly.

 

You change  the earth to a piece of paradise,

You are a sweet  angel in  magical  guise.

 

 

Sweet gerbera,I greet you again and again.

I love you in sunshine and  love you in rain.

Beautiful! I could not resist clicking on this poem as Gerbera daisies are closely tied to sunflowers as my favorite flower! Gerbera's are the flowers that I chose to have in all of my bouquets at my wedding.
You change the earth to a piece of paradise,
You are a sweet angel in magical guise.
Absolutely lovely! Thank you for sharing. :)

I feel very very good to learn that you chose to have Gerberas in all of your bouquets at your wedding.
This observation makes me wonder how your wedding party looked like.
The scene of the various rituals might make you nostalgic and happy.
The lovely kid came on the earth as the result of that wedding and charmed us with your happy smile.
You are very spontaneous and kind,dear friend.
I am very much glad that you stopped by to grace this piece with your admiring review.:)

Gerbera daisies are among my favorites.

[zainul]

Nice to know that Gerbera daisies are among your favorites.
Thank you Amanda for stopping by to share about your love for the flower.
Do you grow Gerbera daisies in your garden?
Which color do you like best?

[Chronic Masticator]

I planted some about six weeks ago or so, but none have sprouted yet. I like the reddish-colored ones best.

[zainul]

Thank you for the great information.I will be happy to know as they develop gradually.
I like the red ones the best.
I have written a short poem entitled,'Ambassador' and I put a picture of a red Gerbera daisy with it.
You may love to see that if you time.
You may find it here:

I posted one of my older pieces just now. =)

Thank you so much dear friend.
I have already read and reviewed it.
This is really a piece of gold.

[Bethany]

I really enjoyed this. Simple structure but beautiful.
Although I had to search what a gerbera was, the poem is a lovely, refreshing, natural piece!

[zainul]

Thank you Bethany for the admiring review.
I had the same problem when I searched for references about the flower.
Another interesting was the lack of poems on such a beautiful flower.
I thought it would be a nice idea to promote the wonderful flower through a poem.
Thanks for stopping by to grace this piece :)

At first I thought gerbera was a woman, but quickly realized it was a flower. I researched it. I'm glad you shared this poem so I could learned about this amazing plant.

[zainul]

I feel very blessed to realize that WC has become an open school where we learn from the works and experiences of the writers.
Thank you Marie for sharing your great feelings.
I am always grateful to you for kindly reading and reviewing my writes.

Ahhhh.. such a beautifully penned love poem! I can envision this as a sonnet, should you ever think to write it as such, but the couplets work well too. With such a passion, life is grand! I can easily see why you love Gerbera so. Lovely job.. so much love and devotion.

[zainul]

Thanks for the admiring review,Lori.
The 14 lines piece evolved naturally on simple couplets.
Actually,it was not intended to be a sonnet.
You have nicely identified my passion for Gerbera.
I hope better poems on this amazing flower may be presented by other poets.
The love and devotion of the great poets is my earnest desire.

[Frieda P]
