under the moon flowers, a shooting star,
triggers, trumpet Lily's,
serenade, to the golden, fields of daffodils,
green leaves, broad petals, and tails,
salute the,cardinal flowers,

monkshood,and holy berries,
proceed swaying
in a formal procession,
of ascending hues,
obedient plants, feel blessed by the dew,
its a celebration,

great white trilliums,trills,thrills,
the fire weeds,
spreading her runners up the hills,
alarming,
merry bells chime to the creeping thyme,
frightening,

The Queen of the prairie,
to unfurl her stems and pistils,
and go whorhling back side first into ,
an unscented bristle cone's bristles.

This is jammed with a long list of pleasant images.I don't know what the last part means but it stimulates the imagination.
I don't know what flower the Queen of the prarie is but it sounds superb!
Good stuff!

I love the simplicity and visual sharpness of this poem. It's a bit haiku-like in form and subject. Well done.
