I am like a Clover, White,
You are to think of me...
Think of me as you go about your work
Or in the house
When you go on rambles
Look for my special flower
Pick one
And hold it in the air
***
I am like a Clover, White,
A Trifolium repens
I am not made to be your weapon:
Trust me
My whiteness is better than your
Wife's wedding gown...
You have me now -
Clover, White
