Flower Power

"Delta dawn, what's that flower you have on?"

                  Daisy paisleys on my gown-               hand-drawn.

& you son, in Vietnam?

                 Blood-red poppies on the ground-          I'm dead and gone.
                                                                                I'm dead and gone.
