Adelaide Lily

Beloved a diamond weeping

In the heart of Adelaide

Legions of memories peaking

Digging dismal graves with spades



A minor fault by sound tribulation

Carved was a wicked tale

Upon her flesh existed no elation

Iced by disdain she ailed



By multifarious degrees your beauty stands

Mirroring the skeleton of a distinguished lily

Complex echoes exude across timeless sands

Dearest a faithful friend, abundant a dilly



Along the texture of your petals nature glistens

Delightful they appear to the sight of lovers

A fusion of paramour and euphoria safely has risen

Lucid the billow of truth has been discovered
