Yellow Tulips kissed by the Sun

Born on April 14  as Tulips touch the golden Sun    

with melodies of the Oceans ebb and flow...  

 

An Emerald Mermaid with splashing blue eyes 

charms Sailors who dream of encounters    

 of romantic rendezvous rapture... 

 

(dedicated to a Poetess who cruises the Oceans)

Dear Pat I hope this dedication reaches the eyes of the poet who captures sailors. I love tulips and your posted image is so uplifting. Beautiful golden petals. Love them. I have a bunch of purple ones next to me. A gift from my grandson who is such a thoughtful young man. He knows how to lift spirits. Love across the waves.

dearest Chris...your review is a prayer that reaches Jupiter and Mars... and beyond... The gift From your Grandson is Sweet as Crocus announcing the miracle of rebirth. Purple Tulips surely have a meaning of Royal words and wishes for a Country striving for a New World where the air we breathe is free to Enjoy. tenderly, Pat

What a coincidence I picked this out of my reading library the day before the cherished birthday! One of my nephews was born on April 14, 1984. I don't know & can't tell by your reviews, but I get a feeling this might've been written for Lydia, lover of cruises. I've never had a wish to go on a cruise, but there are two different kinds of cruises in my new book & I had to use my imagination big time to write about something I never experienced or even thought about. I definitely believe the sailors would look twice or maybe three times to see a mermaid poetess who writes of romantic sensuality like nobody else at the cafe! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Honestly what I see here is "You" Pat✨ again, what a breathtaking gorgeousness, Mermaid, flowers "Tulip" ocean... adventures and fairytales, what's more enchanting to my imagination? Thank You so very much💕

[Lydia Shutter]

Such a lovely write, Pat. Thank you. Lydi**

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Lydi... I have a collection of Tulips in bloom with bulbs in earth like an umbilical cord in order to grow each year... even with tears of dew in the midst of April... so lovely to see your smiling face... I will reciprocate and read your recent poem ... wearing my Wooden shoes. tenderly, Pat

[Pryde Foltz]

There is indeed something rather alluring about the tulip .. and the name:)

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Pryde... I am helplessly in love with Tulips... no thorns in rememberance of being born... Love your Visit. We are having a warm Spring day. tenderly, Pat

[emmajoy]

Thank goodness for people like you, Pat, lovers of plants floral or otherwise.. you spread wonderful tales about them, reminding us of their historic origins. Seems almost all flowers have a extraordinary often inspiring and/or fascinating past. Tulips of course with their upright nature and selection of created colours are beautiful + no wonder your favourites, dear petal.. Thank you so much for sharing.. xx

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Em... I needed your paw print in my poem... thank you for being so generous. I miss my poet friend who has inspired this poem. I hope she reads this entire Vignette to understand I am truly sorry for the misunderstanding. We sometimes have a Cross to bear. This is my Prayer. Thanks for having a tender 💜... 💕 love, Pat

Misunderstandings happen, luv. But real friendship makes allowances, surely. Time can and does heal, darlin'. Will be here soon, on and off. Hugs, always.

[Patricia Wedel]

Hope is on the horizon... Healing is happening... Dreams are smiling.
It is lovely to know you are there helping people. I will be fine... not necessary to reply. Happy Spring... on the Wing.

Such a captivating poem about mature. You blow me away.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Dale... the Wind blows through the trees as Tulip petals float out to Sea. Mermaids 🧜‍♀️ appear... Old Sailors never die... they just drift away with a Mermaid 🧜‍♀️ en tow... truly, Pat

[Dave Brown]

our tulips are up and feeling romantic as they traipse off to hypnotize some lost sailors

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Dave... Tulips have a Heart that speaks to Lovers in Sunshine moments when the Wind whispers softly Je t’adore... your review is pure Magic... truly, Pat

[jacob erin-cilberto]

I am not a sailor, so I am safe with the tulips...
but when two lips meet mine... I am a goner in spring or any season.
I lose my reason.
another beautiful snapshot you present.

[Patricia Wedel]

However, would you be safe with a Mermaid with splashing blue eyes... ? time will tell... if you go for a Cruise... Love the rhyme-- season and reason...
Beware... she will flip her Fin... and you'll be a "goner". Think I will watch the Movie "Splash" with Tom Hanks. Hope you have seen that Movie. gently, Pat p.s. glad you liked the snap shot.

our daffodils are in bloom and the tulips are up ... always a cool time of year. Mermaids of myth and movie .. I've only seen their good side .. except in Pirates of the Caribbean series .. cant remember which one... L3 and 4 Mermaids being used twice weakens it for me ... "...splashing blue eyes" is one of those things one wishes to have thought of it .. the romance of the sea, sailors and alluring mermaids is a strong frame work says i ... the brevity of this poem lets me dapple it with my own sparked imagination in between those few packed lines
