Fire Lily

Lisa Cooper 1962 (United States)

Rhymed
Comely lily bell
Pirouette midst dell
O’ fire dire acclaim
Laud be thy flame

Blissfully frolic rain
Curtsy heavenly ordain
Waft ambrosial scent
‘Neath dewdrops spent

Harvest moon seeps
Pigments posy reaps
Partake titian aplenty
Coffers ne’er empty

Florid starry night
Bequeath bold light
Nary censor thunder
Ignite nosegay wonder
