The Iris Girls

25 Comments

A gaggle of girls all named Iris,

Were worried they might catch a virus,

They huddled together

To wait out the weather, 

And said, “May the sunshine inspire us.”

      Just found three of your comments in my spam and have tried to correct this. I’ve had trouble commenting on other blogs too, so I guess I should check my spam folder more often. Sorry if you thought I had neglected you before.

    Well they inspire me! Their mother Iris might have been like George Forman (the legendary American boxer) who named all five of his sons ‘George’.

    What an enchanting poem and a beautiful photograph! The blue “Iris Girls” enjoying the sun are truly charming—so vibrant and full of character. The poem brings the flowers to life and conveys a loving feeling, as if they were all enjoying the beautiful summer together. I’m so happy to see how you captured the beauty of the irises with so much imagination and heart. Thank you for sharing—it really brightened my day! 🌼
