The Daisy

A daisy looses a pedal Fall has now run deep The ground gets cold and hard She droops and begins to weep Knowing the end is almost here She edges toward the ground With a slight and sudden shiver In snow she soon will drownd Mourning comes the sun arrives Its a clear yet brisky day She slowly rises up again Nearby some children play Before another pedal falls A little girl walks by Pulls the daisy from the ground Then says" you will not die " She takes it home gets a vase Where she puts it in some water Then Sets it in the sunlight Just like her mother taught her After about a week or so A pedal falls to the floor She lays her daisy in a book Of memories she'll store The daisy may have died that day But that was not her end She's in a book of memories Kept by her little friend!

I enjoyed reading your poetry today as I am looking for the inspiration to write something special Pete. I am sure I can pick up on something here and there and then it will hit me out of left field. Thank you for sharing your writing with us and have a wonderful day. Love, Carol
