"Daisies"

"Daisies"

A Poem by Gregory Lara

I'll always protect you, 
Shielding you from the rain.
keeping you warm at night. 

If you cry, I'll bottle every tear. 
And with those tears 
I'll grow a garden of daisies, as far as the eye can see.
Turning everyone of those tears into something beautiful, like you

When you're trampled by the weight of the world,
I'll be there to help you up, to restore you,
And be there to lean on.

If you ever have a nightmare, 
Think of me, kissing you forehead. 
And when you wake, you'll find a daisy by your bed.

If you ever forget, look at a daisy 
And remember me.
Remember I'll always protect, and love you;
Always and forever..

I was actually drawn to this verse bacause of the title as Daisies are my favorite flower. The reason...they grow wild or even in the best conditioned garden. The stems are strong and the petals delicate. I get very much the comparison of this flower to this love. Beautiful write...I can tell it came from your heart and that's the best place to write!

This is a good write, i was particular drawn to the title.
I'd like to ask Why daisies? Is there any particular connection you have with the person and daisies?

This is beautiful usually for me I don't like to read poems that are about or refer to flowers it has always made me think unoriginal but you did great and definitely pulled out to be original great job

A beautiful poem of love and caring. We need to know the feeling of being safe and protected. Kind words and gentle emotions made this poem a outstanding poem of love. Thank you.

Simple. Sweet. Beautiful.
The sort of poem I wish I could write.
Heartfelt and warm, with an undercurrent of something dark.

As I was reading I was like imagining a video with it.
and let me tell you,
it was pretty, like this poem you have here.
