Love Song for a Snakeshead Fritillary (the name of a beautiful and remarkable flower) (Lyrics) (Deleted Stories)

Chorus:

Pretty Snakeshead fritillary,
freckled, delicate and shy;
art like heavy artillery
hitting me between the eyes.

1st Verse:

Though other flora’s more immaculate
than you, fritillary,
with your speckles you are spectacular,
a thrilling sight to see.

You look just like the queen of diamonds
draped in lozenges of red
and queen of my heart; a work of art
that makes me lose my head.

Chorus:
Pretty Snakeshead fritillary,
freckled, delicate and shy;
art like heavy artillery
hitting me between the eyes.

2nd Verse:

You are the prettiest pied beauty
that my poor eyes ever spied.
I wonder why you hang your head.
Why don’t you hold it up in pride?

Your checker patterned petals
fatally checkmated me, alas
and now my heart feels lost, a lot
like Alice through the looking glass.

Chorus:
Pretty Snakeshead fritillary,
freckled, delicate and shy;
art like heavy artillery
hitting me between the eyes.
