Poem for the Day - Hydrangea

The sun rose up today

So early was the sun

Pondering on the reason why

It was revealed to us

But for the Hydrangea

The sun would have slept longer

And stayed on late

For duty called the sun

And quickly he obeyed.

Poem for the Day - Lilac

With its youthful innocence

Lilac gave the walkway

An innocence indescribable

And birds arrived

Uninvited but welcome

To grace the ceremony

And make all at ease.
