To My Amaryllis

A little green came peeping through
It filled my heart with glee
Then nothing more for days and days
I wonder, is it me

I gave you water faithfully
Whenever you felt dry
I put you with my other plants
But maybe you are shy

I moved you to a warmer spot
So you would not get cold
I didn’t ask if you would mind
Perhaps I was too bold

Some music just might do the trick
I put some on for you
I played the Beatle’s Rubber Soul
Do you prefer The Who

Today I moved you one more time
To get a little sun
I’ve done my best, it’s up to you
Plant-up and get it done
