Daffodils and Butterflies

Pretty daffodils make the teacher happy
Children pick them for her from the golden hills
Miss Daisy is behind bars now for touching children
Where they should not be touched according to the rules
Inappropriately as stated in police reports at school

More than their minds were altered
Bathroom floors are made of porcelain
Cold to the feel and dangerous they say
Not a proper place for educating babies

Obscenity is against the law in certain places
Schools are learning institutions for the good

Flowers do not save the day for Miss Daisy
Questionable behavior makes headline news
In the community people talk of things to do

Apples were not her thing it seems
Butterflies and daffodils are soft to the touch
They fill her with delight when naked
Furthering her scholastic education to do right
