In Plumeria Paradise: A Day at Florida Colors - May 4th, 2024

In the heart of spring's tender bloom,
We found ourselves in a plumeria room,
At Florida Colors, where blossoms sway,
More vibrant and numerous than any May. 

A paradise of plumeria, under skies so blue,
More blooms than others, in every hue.
Under the Tiki, conversations flow,
Next to the Koi Pond’s serene, gentle glow.

Here, amidst the whispers of the fronds,
Nature’s secrets bond beyond the ponds.
Leis of plumeria, crafted with care,
Adorning us with beauty rare.

The scent of barbeque drifts through the air,
Mingling with plumeria scents so fair.
In this haven where flowers reign,
Each petal tells a story, a memory’s chain.

Under the Tiki, laughter rings,
Amidst tales of blooms and springtime things.
The Koi glide below in their tranquil dance,
Mirroring the calm of nature's expanse. 

In this paradise, more blooms than ever seen,
In pinks, and yellows, and whites so clean.
A garden of Eden, where plumerias thrive,
In this vibrant landscape, we feel alive.

As we stroll by the pond, in peaceful reverie,
Surrounded by blooms in splendid variety.
This is the place where plumeria lovers dream,
In a world of color, where beauty reigns supreme. 

So here’s to Florida Colors, on that radiant day,
In the plumeria paradise, where we long to stay.
A memory etched in blooms so divine,
In the heart of paradise, where plumerias entwine. 

Join us on May 4th, 2024, in this floral delight,
Where plumerias bloom, so vivid and bright.
In the company of blooms and friends, new and old,
Experience the magic, in this garden of gold.
