Aubade
by Anon

Say, O sweet, and do not rise,
The light that shines comes from thine eyes;
The day breaks not, it is my heart,
Because that you and I must part.
Stay, or else my joys will die,
And perish in their infancy.

The anemone is a bulb and comes in various colours and typically blooms in spring.
From Greek ~ anemōnē means daughter of the wind
