"A Song of the Daisy"
Always so radiantly wide awake,
Ne'er have I found you lazy,
Always so charmingly fresh and sweet,
Dear little bright-eyed Daisy!
Close to my heart I will fold you, Daisy,
Dearest of all the flowers,
Here is a kiss on your sweet pert face
Sealing this friendship of ours.
White, pure white, with a heart of gold,
Innocence, truth and love,
Surely there isn't a daintier dress
Nor a happier face above.
You aren't a saint like the Lily, dear,
Nor yet a coquette like the Rose,
But only a dear little flower child
That carelessly laughs and grows.
Sorrowful souls seek the sweet heart's ease,
Lovers the Violet,
But give me a meadow, a blue June sky,
And a daisy field all dew wet!
Daisy, you know naught of grief and pain,
Care never yet has found you,
It is the charm of your childlikeness
That close to my heart has bound you!

I love daisies to and I especially love to embroider them on my stitching. Have a lovely weekend.
