Lilly

Her dress was a sight to be seen,
pressed in blue, pink, yellow and green.
And with perfume and pearls
and such colourful swirls,
she felt like a tropical queen.

But,
when you’re a young girl, you don’t know
that a dress can tell all whom you show
you’re entitled and bratty
and a favorite of Daddy
with a backyard where money trees grow.

“Lilly Pulitzer represents something that money cannot buy.”
- Robin Givhan

Inspired by this Atlantic article and a youth showered with Lillies.
