Cyberia - The City of Ladies

my first attempt at writing a fitz:

Young Miss Juniper Fox                

had long, flowing  locks            

of a colour most rich and most rare      

which she wound round her head,        

when not in bed,                                  

in a fashion requiring much flair.

These she wore with aplomb                

with a pair of foxes thereon                  

and which her suitors declared 

were the best they had ever seen.

Dear Edith,

I have created a special outfit to wear at your birthday party

May your life be filled with muse, music and laughter

with love from Troubadour

Little Herb Robert,

Bright and small,

peeps from the bank

or the old stone wall.

from Cicely Mary Barker’s “Flower fairies of the summer”

Little Herb Robert,

his leaf turns red;

He’s wild geranium,

so it is said.
