Primrose
Are you really so prim rose?
Are you so prim?
Whilst there you can be found
You stay close to the ground
Snuggled up in grassy mound.
But not really prim
Rose, not really prim
With your lemon parasol
Dainty as a pretty doll
Is it protective protocol?
You really are a flashy piece
Though a low profile you keep
Afraid to go it on your own
Full posy on a bank is blown
Beauty just for spring on loan.
Leaves like Savoy
Drab beside your daintiness
Flash your pretty little flowers
Face the sky for hours and hours
Compared to you the violet cowers.
Are you so prim pretty rose?
If you are then no one knows why
The glory of your yellow glow
Unafraid profusely flowering so
Underground ‘til next year you go.
