The moonlight sleeps in morning rain
as winter feels a season's change
A flower buds above the stem-
while mating birds do nest again
The rose has beauty words can't say-
a garden queen-she does portray
among the clusters of her kind-
majestic blooms now in their prime
The dandelion seeds in wind-
while caterpillars shed their skin-
so butterflies can fly once more
above the field of splendor's door
