Premium Member I Am Like a Clover, White

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
