Margherita
not neapolitan
pizza with just basil
cheese and a marinara
sauce sweet but oh so spicy
in Chaucer's time she
would have been a day's
eye as the sun crosses the
sky with all the flower heads
following failing
to capture her true
light as the day eases
into night and so to sleep
we become
a daisy chain
completing the
cyclical but not to
be the
forgetful
change of
life and our
limbs
