I was reminiscing today
about a daisy I found one day
how tender it looked then
and how beautiful it’s today
I thought about its gentle beauty
its symmetrical petals each white as snow
I thought I should gently caress it
feel the tender texture of its lovely form
How delicately and marvelously fashioned
all the petals were arrayed
I brought it closed to me
my, my, my, what beauty, what grace
I looked at the petals to see what they’d say
I knew the thought may seem awkward right away
the flower was a memory of an idyllic time
that brought memories of time gone by
A sweet time, a treasured time
about a flower so lovely and true
I looked at the daisy once again
and remembered how quickly time flew
I continued looking at it and said
Please don’t wither, please don’t fade
stay with me for the rest of the days

Gracias RR ~ Lovely poem and lovely tribute to your wife. It is interesting how we associate specific Ladies with specific flowers. My current GF has a passion for pink ROSES she is very feminine and a developing pink rosebud always reminds me of her. She is only 27 so she is not yet full blown ! Thanks for sharing BRIAN
Thanks Brian.
