The kiddies called her loopy, the adults
said insane,
She lived in Lilliput Cottage, down in
Lavender Lane,
Always dressed in lilac lace, with violets
in her hair,
And with pretty old Lady L, no one could
compare.
Dancing through deep woods, of larkspur &
soft lilies,
Never caring one jot, that people just
called her silly,
Gamboling stark naked, over soft hills of lilac
heather,
Feeding golden linseeds to her friends of fine
feather.
With a lavender lotus blossom, in purple plumed
hat,
She´d dance the lindy-hop gaily, with dark plumy
bats,
And laughing out loudly, off to Lindisfarne
shed wend,
Just convincing one & all that she was round
the bend.
This old lupine-lidded lovely, made all her
own rules,
Wafting through old forests, dipping toes in
cool pools,
Lifting linden-flowered skirts & dancing
round old wells,
Folk merely nodded, saying, “There goes crazy
Lady L”.
