Analysis of Peony's colors
A majestic red flower like love
Yellow like the sun shining from above
Pink like a flamingo's feather
Violet like buggy heather
White like the winter's first snow
Black like cormorant's in a row
Stripes that only nature can create
The last flowers for you at heaven's gate.
