Bluebells Are Not

Bluebells are not blue
Most of the time they are green
Even when they are new
There is no blue to be seen

Bluebells are not blue
The flowers are almost there
But the colour's never true
So the blue name isn't fair

Looking down, the colours mix together
The ages and the stages of the trees
Mirror seasons of the weather
In the wood the buzzard sees
