Yellow Eye

I’m a simple white daisy
In a world that’s rough
I don’t have thorns
I am not tough
I see with my yellow eye
The smiles passing by
Wishes, upon wishes, I try
To brighten the day
Keep the smiles alive
Without a word to say
I’m a simple white daisy

You have brought to life a real person who knows herself, and is probably naive, and truthful and innocent. Love it!

I feel bad for the humble daisy, lovers rip it petal from petal. I enjoyed this sweet piece. It is hard not to smile when looking at a daisy.
