I took some pictures of the tulip plant that one of my my nieces gave me for Easter. When I examined the flower in the photograph I posted below, I thought the petals looked a little like tongues. That's what gave me the idea for my tulip poem.
TULIP
It poked its pink head up
looking for spring,
stood watching while clouds passed by,
waited till warm yellow rays
looking for spring,
stood watching while clouds passed by,
waited till warm yellow rays
showered down...
then lapped up sunlight
with its silky tongues.
