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.
