My Three Favorite Flowers In Haiku form
A frangipani, an orchid and a rose
The frangipani
Soft pastel colors
A bouquet so enchanting
frangipani see
****
The Orchid (The erotic gem)
Tender and fragile
Female shapes in flowers form
Orchids, pure and true
****
The Rose (Nature's love diamond)
Exotic colors
Perfumes leap from older forms
Rose of love adorns
****
A tulip for good measure (The exotic model)
So slim a figure
Colours bright and to behold
A tulip appears
****
Till next time,
Calvin

Beautiful Haiku ✍️🏆📕
Captivating poem and well written.Good luck.
The haikus are very nice. I would have preferred flowers which are alive in a pot rather than already cut dead flowers, though. 😞
All your Haikus and photos are so beautiful. Loved them all!
Loved. I feel good in honoring nature’s gifts
Beautiful ❤️
I remember the frangipanes so clearly. They are beautiful but the scent? Lovely. Thanks for this, Calvin!
