Do you have a favorite poem or any piece of poetry you like?
Hi!
Yes, well for now this is my current favourite poem/rhyme:

I have a deadly nightshade
So twisted does it grow
With berries black as midnight
And skull as white as snow.
The vicar's cocky young son
Came to drink my tea
He touched me without asking
Now he's buried 'neath the tree.
-This is "Girls Skipping Rhyme" from Chokely in Wynterset
Thank you so much for asking!!

You said I looked like a painting
Mysterious and fascinating
You called me a magical bouquet
With hemlock and deadly nightshade
Thorn apple and lily of the valley
Quite unusual, quite uncanny
Thorny roses and Nerium
Such a beautiful delirium
Blackbriar, Beautiful Delirium
