WINGS OF LACE by HILDEGARDE FRIED DREPS

First Line: PASQUE FLOWERS HIDE WITHIN THEIR HEARTS OF GOLD
Last Line: TO SEED-PEARLS WHICH TAKE FLIGHT ON WINGS OF LACE.
Subject(s): BEES; FLOWERS; INSECTS; BEEKEEPING; BUGS;

Pasque flowers hide within their hearts of gold
A secret that the magic bees unfold.
Their alchemy transforms each petalled face
To seed-pearls which take flight on wings of lace.
