Hello Fernando,

A lovely forum and poetry.

I wrote this one two years ago and featured it in my poetry forum.( http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/post/1210729/MyPoetryRogerMacdivitt.aspx?flag=202286465 )

Although it's technically not my best I like it because the statements are true and the subject is beautiful.

Sweet peas (c) R Macdivitt 2009

Of all the flowers ever grown

these delicate flowers, often shewn

bring joy of eye and scent to please

when dancing delicately in the breeze.

Strong of colour and pastel shades

all mix together in natural parades

of God's creation and man-mades

combine before their glory fades.

Oh how I love their heady scent

in cottage garden their presence meant

that in the vase they would prevent

temporary depressions becoming permanent.

Their tendrils climb and cling and fix

their stalks and leaves to mesh and sticks

the bee he visits and butterfly licks

the loveliest of flowers sweetest tricks.

Frequent picking fails to stem

the flowers from coming, encouraging them

to grow some more of natures gem,

the jewel of flowers, a diadem.

A garden full of shrubs and trees

can, like nothing else, the senses please

but nothing brings me to my knees

like a bowl of glorious, scent-rich sweet peas.

John, yes it is me.
Oh, my what could it be.
Happy I am in my quest,
Now I know what is the best.
