Down the Primrose Path
They say this path is dangerous -
but oh, how beautiful it seems,
with dew-kissed flowers strewn about -
reflections of my sweetest dreams.
I think I took this path before,
and though it brought me pain,
such wonderment I there beheld.
Perhaps I'll go down it again.
Oh, should I go? The other paths
show not such lovely flowers.
And I have been down quite a few
meandering for hours and hours.
I see so many ways to go,
but none can so entice
like the path of primroses,
so sweet - but oh, so high the price!
