MAGNOLIA
Taking an evening stroll
Through Forest Hills Gardens
I came across a huge white flower
Blooming from a tree
Which seemed out of place
As it was the only one of its kind
I recognized it as a magnolia
As my sister who lives
In a small town in southern Virginia
Has one in her front yard
There it is common
Although lonely here
The Magnolia tree appeared healthy
Adding a distinctive charm
To the otherwise ordinary side street
