Daisy Darling

She blooms with the breaking dawn's first light
            with her breath so fresh and her face so bright.
She looks flawless with her beauty at its height
            like a symbol of a new start, hope's next flight.
Innocence is her essence, giving us an insight;
            she is an epitome of purity all dressed in white.
Swaying in the cool breeze her figure so lite.
               She is daisy darling, every gardener's delight.
