Daisies

I could patch the holes in your clothes
If you ever let me that close
Sew daisies into every seam
That tore before meeting me 
Make them prettier than you've ever known

I could tend to the gardens you've grown
Aspiring to be your favorite rose
I'll blend into your scenery 
Content am I, and evergreen
If only to be part of your home

I'd prefer tulips but if it's gotta be daisies...

what a lovely poem. l was once a keen gardner, but now more a watcher than grower, but what a lovely way you have to express life and love. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day. j.
