Royalty and Commoners as One
When peony perfection is upon
Us, strong protection pulses out from them.
Their petals send out messages. The dawn
Of something quite so beautiful as hem,
And skirt, and petticoats of flowers such
As these is matched by spirit signals from
The flowers saying pinkly, “Do not touch
Us with rude rainstorms. Do not let some
Hail dropping cloud be sent our way or cloud
Of thunder come too near us with its weight.
Forbid the sky, its crushing lightning loud,
With its destruction. Save us from that fate.”
..When peonies, perfection, are around,
….We pray, “Let beauty stay with pinkness crowned.”
