I weep for you little Laura
Fragile and flat-chested
Clumping awkwardly
Through life shyly
Averting your eyes from
The incessant ramblings of
Your one upon a time mother
And her once upon a time jonquils

In your menagerie world
Of fragile glass, you had
Something to take care of
The unicorn your favourite
Because he was different
As you were different
And your gentleman caller
Called you Blue Roses
