Birthday Begonias

by Treischel



These beautiful begonias
Are a family's gift
To their sister, to a daughter
Providing birthday lift

She put it in the bright sunlight
And let it drink its fill
Of both water and the sunshine
Right by the window sill

And there they grew contentedly
Delighting grateful eyes
Amongst all her precious items
As her most cherished prize








My wife, Karen, received these beautiful Begonias from her mom and sister for her birthday. I took this picture, and she asked me to write a poem for it. Here it is.

Simple 8-6 abcb rhymed quatrains.

I took this photograph in our living room with the afternoon light streaming through the window.
