A Pride Of Tiger Lilies Opening
March 21, 2019
Garden Poem of the Day A Pride of Tiger Lilies By Bill Dogget While weeding in my vegetable garden, I took a needed break, from my hoeing, I gazed along the creek over the glen, A pride of tiger lilies opening. It appeared to me an exposition, A thousand deep, emerging on parade. Row on row and column after column, In full regalia, a marching brigade. A brilliant orange with narrow spots of brown, On each top hat, a yellow pollen crown. Shoulder to shoulder in closed rank column, Marching, marching in ornamental plume.
