Bellis Perennis
Bellis perennis ~ for that’s her Latin name
sometimes called a weed ~ oh such a shame
not known for being lazy
simply as Daisy
sunny faced
bees love
her sweet taste
mowing her right down
she returns just like a clown
with her cheery face ~ she will delight
sleeping gently Daisy folds her petals tight
