Plants (Poem)
By: Harveen Kaur
The petals are as light as a piece of paper
The stem is solid gold
They flutter and swoosh along
They’re dancing with the wind
Fantastic, fabulous, fragrant flowers
The branches stretch as far as the moon
The leaves are fresh limes
They swish around
While the stem’s standing on its toes
Terrific, tall, tropical trees
The color is like the skin of a toad
They’re little toothpicks sticking out from the dirt
They clatter around in the ground
Trying to wave “hello”
Glamorous, gorgeous, green grass
