Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Red Spider Lily

Lycoris radiata be

A plant with flowers stranded red.

Oft called the red spider lily,

Associated with the dead,

Planted in cemeteries to

Be for departed a tribute,

And aid the departed to do

Successful afterlife pursuit.

The flowers bloom in early fall,

Especially with heavy rain,

Lovely in time and place for all

In the cemetery domain.

Considered bad luck many say

If alive you get a bouquet.
