Peachy Keen

She peeks out,

Obscured mostly by roses,

Flowers sniffed,

By delicate noses.

An uninvited guest,

She doesn't exactly belong,

But a sweet alluring scent,

Has brought her along.

The aroma holds her hand,

Leading her to the table,

Before tea-party guests arrive,

For she works in a mere stable.

She takes in the garden,

Fruity and flowery all around,

Delights set out to eat,

The leaves barely turning brown.

She doesn't remember taking it,

But a peach is in her grasp,

The stable girl takes a bite,

Flavour is hers at last.
