My Tiny Floret

Satin streaks of sun filter her golden ray
and with a glimpse of beauty float away

Tiny floret
precious floret
carry off my dreams
to bountiful fields of white
where innocence plays
on a sun shiny day

Breeze
glorious breeze
carry her free
show her angelic heights
amid visions of white
pointing towards 
star cover nights

Tiny floret 
the daisy has called 
share your petals
with the world
let go my guiding hand 
surround yourself in splendor
and with the new dawn shine

Sunlite Wanter Date: 4/2/2017 10:50:00 AM Oh, this is so wonderful. Daisies (and irises) are my favorite flower, but this reminds me of the progression of the dandelions in my yard - the tufts that fly away. I love it!
