Lavender's blue Dilly Dilly,
Lavender's green;
When l am King, Dilly, Dilly,
You shall be Queen.

Who told you so, Dilly, Dilly,
Who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, Dilly, Dilly,
That told me so.

I haven't heard this poem in ages. My grandmother used to say it to us girls. It's sort of bitter sweet when you read it. Thank you Minnie for posting this and bringing back memories of my Grandmother putting flowers in our hair as she said this on summer days.
