Lure victims and collect scarlet stains,
her tissues turn red when she bleeds; 
Feather headpiece and cocktail gloves,
another smother as she slowly feeds;

Deceptive look head to toe in pink,

A tiny garden angel kneels on a pedestal.
A statue to adorn the garden with her charm.
Her small hands held in prayer.
A circle of flowers around her head.
Her face with a cherubs glow.
Wings outstretched at her sides.
This tiny angel with such life like features.
I sit and watch you pray. 
You are missing some flowers from your headpiece.
It makes me sad each time I look at you.
My tiny garden angel....

Her feathers obtained at a dyed feather store
Her gown was a Mackie, through and through to the core

Sit and watch. Her act was beyond exciting.
That was forty years ago, and I still remember her....

Scottish charm Gods grace merry place
Long tables brightly colored cloth canopy
Foresters  tales  minstrels  manuscript
White flowers hanging garden priests
Veins on forehead thick black  beards
Castle hall best  jesters bravest beef
Scarlet cross mantle linked chainmail
Gallant warhorse plaited headpiece
Kindhearted  man  loved her deeply
Sage smoke vapours rose sunrays
Mighty hunter brought quarry home +
breathed deeply the scent of flowers
Red-and-gold garlands on his neck....
