Gladiolus here, Gladiolus there, 
Gladiolus everywhere: 
In the long, long garden rows. 
Swinging and swaying, they seem to be 
saying, 
With every breeze that blows, 
Come over and get us! 
They call to you, They call to me, and 
they call to everyone: 
From the North, South, East and 
West. 
With their pretty faces, their form and 
graces, 
They beckon and say we’re the best, 
Come over and get us! 
You stand by them, and say ahem, 
Which one is really the best, 
While all over the blooming place, 
Those salmon and yellows, and tall 
blue fellows, 
That look so nice in a vase, 
Are whispering come over and get us. 
But united they stand, in a picture so 
grand, 
With a pleasant urgent appeal, 
Who can isolate one from the rest? 
And call it “The Only’, 
Why it would be lonely! 
Out of its colorful nest. 
They all say come over and get us.
