Just a simple boundless lore

Chrysanthemums betwixt the pair

Beneath in the fragrant shade

Many colors do they be

All so pretty to see and the smell is so sweet

Fills the air with their aroma

CHRYSANTHEMUM

The meaning symbolist of chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum

With a history that dates back to 15th century B.C., chrysanthemum mythology is filled with a multitude of stories and symbolism. Named from the Greek prefix “chrys-“ meaning golden (its original color) and “-anthemion,” meaning flower, years of artful cultivation have produced a full range of colors, from white to purple to red. Daisy-like with a typically yellow center and a decorative pompon, chrysanthemums symbolize optimism and joy. They’re the November birth flower, the 13th wedding anniversary flower and the official flower of the city of Chicago. In Japan, there’s even a “Festival of Happiness” to celebrate this flower each year.

A symbol of the sun, the Japanese consider the orderly unfolding of the chrysanthemum’s petals to represent perfection, and Confucius once suggested they be used as an object of meditation. It’s said that a single petal of this celebrated flower placed at the bottom of a wine glass will encourage a long and healthy life.

Cosmic cavalcade

Beowulf the monsters and the critics time

Warns of the darger of usein

Poetry of a different kind

Would not be worthy

If used for wrong and in rude way

A cavalcade of authors

Thats what we be

Read write imagine

Write the tails

Of what ever we like

Stories and more

And the likings

Songs if you please any ole tune will do as long as its poppin

Quote: 1

Don’t be ashamed to weep; ’tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.”
― Brian Jacques, Taggerung

Quote: 2

It’s so curious: one can resist tears and ‘behave’ very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer… and everything collapses. ”
― Colette
