A
profusion of colours
To
stimulate and inspire
Intensity
and glorious beauty
Floriade
is beyond compare
"On
the lake" starry flowers
Tulips
of every hue
Mauve
pansies and violas
The
most amazing view
Brilliant
scarlet, golden yellow
Crimson,
coral, hyacinth blue
Bursts
of colour against emerald green
Petals
kissed with morning dew
Countries
from around the world
All
have their own display
Exotic
blooms and produce
Floating
gardens drift away
"By
the hill", a man-made mound
Silhouetted
against the sky
The
sun glistening on the water
Near
a giant golden butterfly
"Near
the roof" tropical orchids
Lilies,
roses, even desert cacti
Scented
stephanotis and wisteria
Oriental
gardens with bonsai
Floriade
is once a decade
Eight
years to come to fruition
Never
in the same place twice
A
wonderful Dutch tradition!
