then meditated swimming alongside fronds !

Daisy
Last petal of a daisy
signifying she loves me not
could have fallen off the day before
or maybe
she loves me not.

Lazy Daisy
Lazy Daisy sat on a couch
Lazy Daisy was a slouch
All the free money
And all the free checks
Couldn’t give Daisy some self respect

Desert Rose
If I ever had a daughter like me,
I’d call her
my little desert rose
so she knows I’ve lived it too—
a brittle-stemmed rose
blooming through sandstorms.
Were I to have a daughter—
someone soft like me...
I’d tell her I’m sorry.
Not for bringing her into a world
where cruelty exists—
but for letting her live in it
when her petals part
before her thorns remember
...

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

Driving Miss Daisy
Driving Miss Daisy
A good deed.
Driving Miss Daisy.
Put yourself last.
Remain humble and give.
Better to give than receive.
Go out of your way.
No work in vain.
Lead as an example.
Passionate for others.
A friend to lean on.
A good listener.
Old ways to wisdom.

Abundance of daisies,
Delicate white petals,
Leaves of green,
A meadow, so beautiful,
A joy to be seen.
Star shaped white faces,
Gently swaying in the breeze,
They appear everywhere,
In fields and amongst trees.
The joy of nature.
Wild and wonderful,
So graceful and silent,
Daisies so delicate and small,
A field full of daisies,
Such a lovely

relocated daisy
They say a single white
blossomed.
Petals flung wide
in the east wind’s howl—
She must be lonely.
Alone? Yes, but not adrift.

Daisy-Do
Her daisy-do; a twirling stem says love.
White petals-aye, the plucking slow and sweet.
Initially removes her satin glove.
Begins to sow her fate; each wistful retreat.
Her blonde, blue eyes on him.
She parted blades of grass, beheld her choice.
He’s high, out on a limb.
Love’s in the air; gown’d meadow he’ll savor.
Her fella, in rejoice,
As the flower speaks grace

Daisy Forever In Our Hearts
Daisy
My memories of you.
The loving licks on our face,
were cherished moments we
embraced.
A friend in you, I could
always trust, just you
and I, the two of us.
I remember our walks
in the park, and the
birds you chased,
Oh, how you barked!
The baths I gave you
to keep you clean, but
you loved dirty puddles
more, it would seem.
What you would

PETALS FROM A DAISY
She loves me; she loves me not;
She loves me; she loves me not.
Not knowing the answer is driving me crazy,
And that’s why I’m picking petals from a daisy.
She loves me; she loves me not;
She loves me; she loves me not.
The answer to that depends a lot
On how many petals the daisy’s got
She loves me; she

Altruistic Blues and Whites
As the wind cascades out in a frenzy motion
Nephophilia, a thudder crave
Exclamation is a sudden urge
Since soft cotton candies switches to pastels and iridescents
Looking up close
Still immeasurably far
The old regime of sunrise and sunsets finna come up to horizon
where moons and suns collide
stars surrounding them
blues and whites

Held Together Like Daisy Chains
pluck me like a ripened fruit from the garden
that the sun shone on early in the morning
and you would sigh in relief at the harvest
because i was good to you
see me as fondly as the first buds of spring
unleashing their insides to the world
how your tongue savors its fruit
like a parched desert flower

Daisy became a daisy light at midnight
She was a godsend to this reader, Willam White
During the day she kept him clean
At nighttime he read books easily seen

Daisy Dance
Black umbrella full of blue rain
Disenchanted fella jilted Bella
Red heavy hearts full of pink pain
Not going to be together no forever
Is it better to have Lily loved and lost
To feel like a flower basking in the sun
Only to to have your everything tossed
Reduced dismissed back to lonely one
It is if you are a reminiscing romantic
Who
