King of Flowers
Garden's Royal Bloom
A garden’s crown
A flower renowned
Glorious colors
Bountiful colours
Lushly full robes
Holding majestic globes
Long-lived perennial shrub
With flowers that fill a tub
Their meaning, each color decides
Carried by many brides
Traditionally
Culturally
Significant with the Chinese and Japanese
A lovely scent wafting in the breeze
Petals dancing in the wind
Gardeners religiously tend
Tubers tenderly set out in their beds
With the tools growers keep in sheds
Bouquets grown
Gnomes around a stone
Get rid of the concrete
A garden isn’t complete
Until you add fantastic peonies
Get down on your knees
Get your hands dirty
Go ahead and plant thirty
Once you do
You’ll fall in love, too
A beauty bringing a promise of joy
A bloom for all to enjoy
