daisies

Creatures are defined as living beings that can move. Daisies may be accused of running out of control underground on their rootstocks, but I don't think that is part of their job-description. Never mind, I love daisies, both the small ones that frequent our lawns or the larger ones from the herbaceous borders, so I'll be happy to conjure up a haiku or two in their honour.

weeding the lawn I spare the daisies- please, don't chain them daisy chains crown the hair of the pretty little girls --- little daisies stretch their necks to catch the sun myriads of tiny mirrors on the pond: flakes of sunlight --- on my knees I crouch over worm casts disturbed by moles string of beads sparkling white essence of daisies --- sunlight aslant gifts shadows two sets for the price of one in the garden patterns of white daisy chains anything else?
