One afternoon I said to myself,

"Why aren't daffodils more unpotted?"

Do daffodils make you shiver?

do they?

A gladioli, however hard it tries,

Will always be miniature.

Never forget the little and small gladioli.

fat honeysuckles sings like yellow trees

Never forget the adipose and gross honeysuckles.

yellow roses sings like a thornless mind

Never forget the old and colored roses.

carnations are not uncultivated!

carnations are exceptionally refined.

Carnations are cultured. carnations are refined,

carnations are civilized, however.

All that is ugly is not lupines,

lupines, by all account is beautiful.

Do lupines make you shiver?

do they?
