So spake simple Simon

So spake simple Simon
	On a breezy summer day,
Watch and wait a gust of wind
	With tune of lute afar away.
And don’t despair a bud’s decay
	But welcome dandelion fuzz.
Bid your eyes to busy bee,
	Hear him join the song a-buzz.
Pink and purple petals cause
	A subtle and polite milieu,
For summer’s simple day of song,
	First dawn then day and then ensue.
