L I L Y

Each different variety of lily is full of such allure 

But the most common meaning is that Lillies are pure

The sweet and innocent beauty of the lily flower 

Has given the association of fresh life and power

Lily most commonly means devotion as it should

Because the Greeks name associates her with motherhood

lily is used in weddings it’s believed she brings

love to the couple and creates unity

God asked, Why are you anxious about clothing? 

Consider the lilies of the field, how they are growing

They don’t toil, neither do they spin around

Lilies, one of the most beloved bulbs on the ground

for the summer garden, to burst in with blossoms 

Plant her in late Autumn 

Unlike most flowers that are still in a holding pattern

Lily has strong stems and substantial petals

She’s also a showstopper as a vase of cut flowers

If you want to dance around with flair

Do it with a beautiful Lily in your hair
