Oh, Tiger Lily
You are so beautiful
With petals that are long with delight
    and spotted with fever
Petals that curl out from the North to the South
To dance in the wind's adagio breezes
    and bathe in the sun's warm kisses

Oh, Tiger Lily
Your phallic tendrils delicately fountain out
    from the East to the West
Tendrils that exude aphrodisiacal fragrances
    from the center of your being that call us
    all into your lilic presence
For us to view when you come into full bloom
    in all your glorious colors and forms

Oh, Tiger Lily
Out of all the earth's exquisite flowers
I love you best
        because...
You are truly exotic and wild
Mother Nature's erotic child
