It was love at first sight
Watching your little tulip
Blossom bright
When stars that shine goes dim
The whole world, feels its chill
My poor little tulip
Smile again and bring out the sun
Walk the land, hop with joy
So trees will bear their sweetest fruits
Do something silly
So I would call you crazy
And have you smile back at me with grin
My poor little tulip
Brighten up, and lets go pick wild flowers
As beautiful as you are, as you always are
My poor little tulip
I like this poem especially, as I have a little dog named "Tulip." And with her as well it was 'love at first sight.'
ReplyDeleteawwww happy yet, sad.
ReplyDeleteWhile reading this, an image of hop-skipping little girl dancing under the glorious morning sun sprang to mind. :D So nice.
ReplyDeleteVery calming and filled with beauty write, nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThis could so easily have become sentimental. It's a tribute to you that it didn't. Well done.
