TWO SPIDER LILIES
two spider lilies greet my morning footsteps
with smiles as slim as slices of day moon

sincere silence of a kiskadee adds witness
white banded head, beak closed in observance

knowing streaks of gratitude radiate sunbeams
for are not lilies happy of this timely flirt?

    I find it endearing how the nature blossoms in your words. I loved the image of those lilies as slices of day moon. :-)

    How beautifully visual. I particularly like, 'smiles as slim as slices of day moon'.

    Love those spider lilies' 'smiles as slim as slices of day moon' and the 'sincere silence of a kiskadee' - the sibilance adds a sparkle, Gillena!
