She tried to steal the larkspur's beauty for herself,
And plucked its pink petals with greedy pleasure,
But when she held the velvet petals in her hand,
She frowned and threw them in the air frustrated;
She had not managed to strip the larkspur of its beauty.
Where the larkspur got such bloom,
She would ask if it would tell,
But its beauty is a secret,
The larkspur won't spill.
