Verses To Collector Mitchell
by Robert Burns
FRIEND of the Poet, tried and leal,
Wha, wanting thee, might beg or steal;
Alake, alake, the meikle deil

In my poor pouches?
I modestly fu' fain wad hint it,
That One-pound-one, I sairly want it;
If wi' the hizzie down ye sent it,
It would be kind;

Forgotten Verse

petals dance too

The eye with wonder and amazement fills;

Saffron Spring
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Blooms bountiful on laughter lane
Purple peonies after raging rain
May melodies, sunshine songs

A waking world, scents swirled
Saffron spring, scarlet ruby rose ~
Creamy clouds roam restlessly, slow.

Sunshine of Our Lives
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Ring around crimson roses
butterscotch sun comes around
lavishing mellow yellows upon
lifestyles on the ground
