- Wood Anemone -

A small beautiful spring flower
Wood anemone, only seven to twenty centimeters long
An adorable little lady with white dress and yellow hair
A beauty for the eye you can not deny
A star blanket you will enjoy

That it is poisonous we all know
But you should not eat it, just look and smell
Old herbal doctors say it can be used as medicine
Rheumatic pains, toothache, warts, freckles and sunburn

I will pick a big bouquet put them in a vase with water
and not use it on my aching tooth or my freckles
