I am the beautiful
Being whose color is as scarlet red as your blood
I am as red as an apple that has just been freshly
Picked off an apple tree.
The bees and all creatures rely on me
And love me. I am always a scarlet red no matter
How dark the night is.
The moons light reflects off of me
  And lets me glisten in the cold dark air
Of the night.
As the tender rain falls on my petals I glisten even
More beautifully.
Now till spring comes again
Watch out and you might just spot
Me.
