From Spring Flowres

From Spring Flowers Deep in forest did find some flowers That looked just like tiny ivory towers Even glowed in dark and were all white You could often see far into the night. When sun came up they turned true blue And I then loved them through and through Delicately, had decided to dig up a few Where to be planted, perfect place I knew. Planed on planting them in backyard of ours Whenever you should see soft rain showers After for quite a while it now had been By night each one turned white again. In middle of winter flowers became red And by the time that they were all dead; In our famous flag same colors are used From flowers sneezed and said you are excused.
