Frangipani Poem by Marina Pascal

Frangipani...

Beautiful!
Charming blossom!

No one ceases
to admire your beauty.....

How radiant you get
with each sprinkle
of dew and each ray
of sunlight
or moonlight.

Your fragrance
so sweet and mild
float around your admirer
and fill the air
around you.

Your pastel colours
of white, cream and pink
depicts your purity
tenderness and
sentiments.

Your petals
so soft as satin
befitting the caress
of young chevaliers
in garlands around
their necks
or gentle touch
of beautiful women
while adorning their hair!

You make the most
exquisite bouquet
for virgin brides
and pretty maidens.

Infact, you are
appropriate for
all occasions!
