Tiger Lily

By lacebutterflies

Vibrant flashes of color Muted together Into a single flower. Each petal Possessing A story, A secret, A tale of beauty and seduction. Wildly untamed, And uninhibited, It challenges the quieter daisies, Boasting of its Splendor, And its Magnificance. It knows no shyness, No regret. Laughing quickly, The tiger lily stands tall, Like the soldier It really is, In the gentle, Late spring afternoon. ©Copyright R. McCarthy

Superb! I can almost smell the beauty, feel the colors. You paint with words like Van Gogh paints with brushes and canvas.
