Orange Blossom starts with O,
the fragrance is so sweet.
It is the state flower of Florida,
And the fruit is good to eat.

The Wishing Flower

In a pot in my garden

By the pond with the fishes

Is a flower that seems to like

Spreading lots of wishes.

I came across it yesterday

I'd not seen it there before

And now I wonder how it got here

Where people can't ignore.

The pot is golden brown

The stem is thick and green

The flower's lots of colors

Like a rainbow to be seen.

It sits there looking pretty

Shining when it's touched

And letting people know

About their wishes, very hushed.

I told it what I wished

And it said that it would be!

So next year I know I'll have

Some proper, grown-up teeth!
