Notes About The Poem

Lily of the Valley

Lily of the valley in spring
        Ringing its white bells in the wind
       Its sweet fragrance, one-of-a-kind
             Lily of the valley in spring
     How nice it blooms; a wondrous thing
    Its quite poisonous...bear that in mind!
             Lily of the valley in spring
       Ringing its white bells in the wind
