A Bumper Crop Of Red Camellias

That pretty ole Camellia bush
 has produced
a "bumper crop"
 of magnificent blooms,
 right here around
 Valentine's Day.
I've been doing a lot of  
clipping
and gathered
a bundle
of Camellia ladened branches
to give away.
She loved them,
 and compared them to
 Peonies.
I agreed
with her
my
young
daughter.
I wish
for 
some
way
to give you
 all
a
great big beautiful
Camellia
bouquet.
-
When you take a flower
in your hand
and
really look at it,
it's your world
for
the
moment.

I wish for you
an abundance of beautiful
