Loves Poison

Spring sweet daughter dances around, 
Like an experienced gypsy connected with nature.  

She spins, twirls, leaps, and falls, 
But mostly enjoying herself like a wild child.
 
A word of warning to those to close, 
Falling for her will become your Achilles heel. 

She’s a wildfire that consumes, 
If you stay too long you’ll get burned too. 

But oh, how pretty isn’t she, 
Like a belladonna, she brings a swift death.
