- Beautiful Poppy -

Poppy so red and fine
                                  you have a glow that no other
                                    Poppyglow like a rising sun

                                  You stretch your long and thin
                                           stem up to your
                                        Poppyball at sunset

                                     The moon is creeping up
                                        and we can dance a 
                                     Poppydance in moonlight

                                     Night falls and I appreciate
                                          a Poppy in my hair
                                     Good night my beautiful
                                         Poppy, good night
                                I feel Poppywind against my cheek
