You have all the right syllables. Undressing arms-a good description of the lanky stamens. Thanks for sharing it
and your work.

Well written and descriptive. I like the metaphor of "undressing arms" Personification is good, too. A well don flower 5/7/5/ poem.

Bravo, Greg

You've not only crafted a finely written short poem of nature's lily unfolding its petals and fragrance, you've also created a most wondrous metaphor of life's unfolding. 'The Rolling Winds' metaphor has so many layered meanings.

Well done, my friend.

This poem lends the reader a new perspective, a fresh way of looking at this beautiful flower. Yes, there is something of the sense of the yellow stamens as arms wriggling out of a white dress.

The beautiful Easter Lily. I love the picture. The words are befitting for this picture. The poem met the criteria of the 5-7-5.Good Job!
