Fritillaria, (Snakes Head)

Where diamonds shape a lantern harlequins are taunted in jest, which inaugurates the conviction attracting an upheld stance. They stare like a drastic mistake; thinking it was a corn snake. Warily, from side to side, surprise! one way or the other fully fixed; around those surrounding sceneries hypnotic is the way its eyes transfix. It nullifies a moment to the ground container-like as bulbous ends disturb like a death's-head rattling sound, by this inconspicuous perrenial herb. It is limp to the elusive sun approach dictating to the forty five degree- holds head as moments waiting there, gardeners probe this mauve naivety. It deceives so contrarily it contrives I guess that's how fritillary survives.
