Daisies

sonnet variation

 

 

Daisies

 

A lawn without a weed it seems

 would satisfy most gardeners dreams

 But not for me I much prefer

 to see a daisy here and there.

Like stars which decorate the night

 these tiny flowers glowing white.

 A sight which I find pleases me

 much more than boring greenery.

My neighbours say it’s a disgrace

but dare not say it to my face.

They know what my reply would be

 and so they whisper secretly.

About the way I keep my lawn

with daisies strewn and left unshorn.

Wonderful flow and rhyme....with a little humor tossed in. Love it!

The flow of this is flawless, and the rhyming is excellent. A very pleasant read as I anxiously await springtime. Very nice!
