ah yes, my morning glory you arise,
and blossom in your splendor with first light.
You crane to feel the warmth each petal spies,
and leave behind the myst'ries of the night.
 
You wilt so weakly as the day wears on.
So meekly, does your beauty burden you?
As ev'ning comes, my heart remembers dawn
and how you thrilled me with each joyful hue.
 
But, hidden deep within your lovely wiles,
an evil poison flows in deadly stream.
My mind's adrift, we share our star-struck smiles.
I cannot tell your nightmare from my dream.
 
I should have let my eyes draw beauty in;
but I was weak--last night I tasted sin.

The morning glory flower blooms in the morning and its blooms close as the sun goes down.

It is hallucinogenic in small doses and lethal in large doses.
