Flowers
Carley Hurt
Flowers here, flowers there
Flowers all around the square
Pink, yellow, blue, and white
Oh what a sight
Red roses in the meadow
Yellow tulips by the pond
It would be quite easy to bond.
Flowers here, flowers there
Flowers all around the square
Huge tiger lilies line the castle walls
Looks like they’re planning to attend a ball
All the flowers stand so tall never looking down
As if they’re trying to take the crown.
Flowers here, flowers there
Flowers all around the square
Luscious pink, brilliant blue,
Terrific turquoise, nothing’s bare
Oh how nice and sweet they seem
The beautiful flowers lined up in rows
With pretty petals that look like bows
The sun will forever shine
Over this beautiful garden of mine!
