Daffy O' Dill
I spotted her from far away
a thin tart
Very svelte in a form
fitting long green gown
Her face shrouded by
a rather large
oversized
Buttercup yellow
bonnet
Daffy O' Dill
The Spring maiden
flaunting and teasing
Passers by. Who could miss
the huge bonnet
Towering over the
thin frame as she flowed with
The wind and sunned herself.
A bee stopping
To sip of her powerful
aromatic nectar which
Nature provided.
To the Bee an ambrosia, a
Delightful natural cocktail
of Devine proportions.
Ah yes and his spiritual adviser
the Hummingbird
In a bit of a hurry
not too impressed with
Daffy O' Dills' lack
of sweetness prefers roses
Or more fragrant pastoral flowers.
We must
Welcome Daffy O' Dill
for even though Old Man
Winter covers her
and hoards her for himself
She always erupts svelte
and glorious a sanctimonious
Welcome to spring
that one cannot ignore.
