Ode to Flowers

Oh my dearest flower
how you bloom so beautifully
you can be dotty or stripey
and all are so unique
there's roses, tulips, daisies and more
they're calming like canoeing with a wooden oar
oh yeah, nature is a ten
I would rather be with it than the Big Ben
swaying through the sunlight, your fresh petals glow
changing colours as you grow
living with flowers is the best gift of all
as your petals fall I start to ball
you have been here for so long
but now you're gone 
oh my dearest flower
the best gift of all
