Lazy Daisy

Lazy Daisy

Lazy Daisy refused to bloom
so Father Sun asked why

Because in order for me to
bloom, the blue skies have to cry

Silly flower, those are not tears
you see

It is simply mist
off the heaven's deep blue sea

So Lazy Daisy tried her best
and she bloomed like never
before

And Father Sun smiled a
winsome smile as he began
to set once more

That’s lovely, nicely rounded poem with a story, you can imagine a blue sky with flowers below, kind of wilting, along comes a little cloud just waiting to squeeze a raindrop or two out of big round eyes …
