Flower and Flour
Flowers in the rain showers
Drinking their wine
Soaking in the goodness
Drenching the vine
Flowers for senses
Pleasing the eyes and nose
Calla Lilies, Freesias
And the red, red, rose
Flowers for healing
Lavender and Eucalyptus
Remedies for ailments
From fruits of the citrus
Flour from corn and wheat
Rye and barley
Ground in the mill
Making good whisky
Flour in the kitchen
Mixing into the cake
Self-rising goodness
For the perfect bake
Flour in cookies
A different bouquet
Confections galore
A sweet array
Flower or Flour
Both provide pleasure
And healing qualities
Measure for measure
