THISTLEDOWN: TRIOLET: 8 by CORA RANDALL FABBRI

First Line: THE SWEET, BLUE IRIS STARS THE STREAM
Last Line: AND GREEN WOODS ARE ALIVE WITH SONG.

The sweet, blue iris stars the stream,
And green woods are alive with song.
The wild, pink-petaled roses dream,
The sweet, blue iris stars the stream,
And two gold-throated linnets seem
To sing their hearts out all day long.
The sweet, blue iris stars the stream,
And green woods are alive with song.
