You were the solitaire flower Atop the mountain while below The meadow pliant with Flowers amidst splendor of sight All beholden to skyward one a delight The mountain I did ascend Reaching it's heights expelling my might To gather your loveliness Fragrance drifting heavenward it's spell Warm mist my heaving breath in frosty air My extended fingers reaching out Drawing to bosom your petals soft To give you life and care From the heights we did descend Bringing you to haven and home Safe from all tempest and storm But alas my loves! The flowers of the common Beholding you left to be Even as everyone of them Forsaken loves,- special flower not to be Why is your betrayal of me?
