Tulips Dance and Bow

Tulips Dance and Bow (my digital music composition)

 

My friend, what do we really know?
Even though cut, the Tulips grow.
I wonder how they dance and bow
from their Stage of water in a vase
to our delight and our applause.
They give us such a lively Show,
their Tulip Life, before they go…
Dying Flowers, how do they grow?

    • Thanks Dee! It delights me that my poem inspires you to appreciate tulips even more. As a professional floral designer for the last 20 years I have seen many tulips beautify the world.

    • Thank you so much! I awoke at about 3 a.m. to write this one while enjoying a cup of tea. Many people like having their tulips stand straight like soldiers but I prefer to see mine as dancing performers moving with the changing light.
