Analysis of Flowers
Flowers lay drinking in a crystal vase
Roses, lizianthus and tiny fern sprays
White and blue with floral scented hue
droplets shining on pretty leaves displayed.
A bouquet a present with chocolate truffles
For a Sunday lunch offered for us to snuffle
A meal enjoyed with family and with friends
to give us pleasure on a wonderful weekend.
