Queen Anne's Lace petals its way across
wide fields swaying in unison
even a small breeze turns them
this way or that, changing, leaning

Poppies, Blue Bonnets, Dandelions
all the dancing flower heads
colored hairdo'd flowers scented
sweet fragrance and hues sublime

great swaths of deep purple and red
blazing yellow to white of sun
Dutch windmills turn to fields
vast with Tulips of every tinge

bees and butterflies buzz and flutter
as flowering summer drones on today
satin and silk petals so enticing
Roses and Asters and Iris spike out

oh, how I love the blossom of Mother
Nature's bosom, all the Dahlias, Daisies,
and Zinnias, the Sunflowers bright,
Lilies, Lavender, and Chrysanthemums
