Daisies I grow them in my soul here, you watch me: I throw them to the ocean, and you're at sea. You catch them- I know you do- you hold them, you turn them now to the light, then upside down, back to front, as if you thought you might see some hidden things, messages for you alone. But, you see, that’s what they are, every bloom. Please don't pull these petals off: this is the one you’ve waited for, here at last. And it’s not He Loves Me Not. What is it? Well, now you know. Now you know. And now you know who I grow my daisies for. |
Additional Notes:
For the love of my life, my wife, Diane.
