The Garden Party

Dainty Bess did not show her face At the garden party today... In her absence, Larkspur were Hoity in elegant dress of hot pink and Sapphire blue lace, standing tall, lifting Their heads so all could see. Irises burst with laughter in golden crowns, Sparkling in the afternoon sun. Their bearded neighbors shone too, in every Color of blue, yellow and orange that shimmered. Fox glove stood guard, dazzling in lavender pink. Lilies with speckled faces beamed. Columbine majestically dressed in red and purple, Pushed to be noticed and danced to the Rhythm of quiet breezes. Shasta daises in lacy white and yellow entered With grace as evening primrose waited for their Time for grand entrance. The party was quite an affair with pansies dancing Around the edge of silver mounds.
