Villanelle Me a Flower Or Flowers

Some true beauties without the blue I picked from a small, fragrant garden; yes, Nature gives very freely, I do too. One pink orchard, one red dahlia to give to anyone who is sadder than I; some true beauties without the blue. Something found by chance can ensue, giving it away causes a feeling of joy; yes, Nature gives very freely, I do too. The flowers I hold are for pretty Sue, even carelessness can damage them; some true beauties without the blue. Lovely flowers can make dream anew of the lovely girl with the sweet voice; some true beauties without the blue. At the gate where the hyacinths grow, I've met someone with eyes that glow; some true beauties without the blue... yes, Nature gives very freely, I do too.
