Bloom - is Result -
to meet a Flower
And casually glance
Would cause one
scarcely to suspect
The minor Circumstance
Assisting in the
Bright Affair
So intricately done
Then offered as a
Butterfly
To the Meridian -
To pack the Bud -
oppose the Worm -
Obtain it's right of
Dew -
Adjust the Heat -
elude the Wind -
Escape the prowling Bee -
Great Nature not
to disappoint
Awaiting Her that Day -
To be a Flower, is
profound
Responsibility -
My Heart opon a
little Plate
Her Palate to delight
A Berry or a
Bun, would be,
Might it an Apricot!
