Lily By the Stem

Lily, light and frilly, On the may day break; She mounts upon the hill Engulfed by the morning dew, In gaeity she blossoms wide and fair, Beset upon the breast, Of yellow, green distended bed. Oscillating with the glorious wind, Pleased to be a fleeting flower; Neither deploring nor resenting, It's petite existence, Coming to approbate, life is short but fair, Gradient, soft and delicate, A momentary dream in tune.
