Hyacinthoides Non-Scripta
For I am here under the tree.
For I am here under the sun.
I see you and you see me.
Every year you get older as I become.
I live in shadowed splendour.
I live and bring colour to your life.
A natural gift, a natural wonder.
As I bloom you smile with your sad eyes.
I am blue but not of melancholy.
I am blue but not of sky.
I can help bring quiet to a deafening mind.
I can help depression break into a smile.
I am new but I am ancient.
Before your birth and after your life.
I will still be here in this woodland.
Every year of every life.
