John Lawless Poet Free verse

I was crazy enough to give her a daisy

I was crazy enough to give her a daisy
Well, a bunch of daisies
Purchased on a whim
Y’know, hey she might like these

Not knowing the power of the devilish daisies
I muttered something like
“I kinda thought ya might like these”

Not sure how the Daisies did it
But they spun a gossamer web
Whispered in a quiet scent
You are crazy enough to give her a daisy
She will cherish this moment
The daisies and you

For crazy is the simplest
Of love’s expressions

Panagiota Romios June 12, 2025 at 11:15 AM I understand “ her.” Some of us, go nuts over simple things. Sometimes on things you cannot buy at all. Who can buy a sensous glance? That only you can give her? Who can take her breath away as only you can do? This is a Fav for me! You touched my heart. Thank you. Pangie. That”gossamer web whispered in a quiet scent” is an overwlming line of poetry! Pangie
