What do I pluck in a field of flowers? The peonies bloom with such sweet intent I can’t just sit in this grass for hours It is hardly a choice, why do I cower Blue delphiniums with fearless content What do I pluck in a field of flowers? If I delay I’ll be in spring showers Must I choose one blossom if I relent? I can’t just sit in this grass for hours The bee can choose all, each it empowers Roses and violets? I will not lament What do I pluck in a field of flowers? Just pink or blue is shouted from towers But lavender’s love is the freest scent I can’t just sit in this grass for hours These meadows are solely each of ours Lilacs in my hand I will not repent What do I pluck in a field of flowers? I can’t just sit in this grass for hours

Lavenders and Lilacs
What do I pluck in a field of flowers? The peonies bloom with such sweet intent I can’t just sit in this grass for hours It is hardly a choice, why do I cower Blue delphiniums with fearless content What do I pluck in a field of flowers? If I delay I’ll be in spring showers Must I choose one blossom if I relent? I can’t just sit in this grass for hours The bee can choose all, each it empowers Roses and violets? I will not lament What do I pluck in a field of flowers? Just pink or blue is shouted from towers But lavender’s love is the freest scent I can’t just sit in this grass for hours These meadows are solely each of ours Lilacs in my hand I will not repent What do I pluck in a field of flowers? I can’t just sit in this grass for hours
