Butterflies and Daisies
Butterflies and daisies,
orange and yellow day lilies,
I'd love to take you with me,
but I'm just too lazy,
and you'd probably drive me crazy-
for you have always,
and you will always....
-AMAZE me.
My dream has always been,
to breath in a garden of zen,
and float around like bubbles;
and then pop,
and do it all over again.
For we don't pick our friends,
only a few will stay,
then they go right on their merry way.
Unless you are you, they'd stay for eternity,
and stay until the final day.
An angel on a soft lily pad,
with little critters keeping her company-
Fields and fields of daisies,
and butterflies surrounding
all over me.
Butterflies and daisies,
purple and pink pansies,
I'd love to pick you and take you home,
Surely I am too lazy-
You'd most likely drive my hunger crazy,
For you, My love, have saved me-
You have always, and you will always....
-AMAZE me.
I posted this poem my first day here at Poetry Soup, but I actually wrote it July 2, 2005. It has always been one of my favorite poems I wrote for my hubby.
