Daisy

 

[Daisy]

 

summer day in the garden

little flowers

nothing more complicated than little

 

one coral grevillea

pushing up under like curving leaves

indicates it’s taken root

 

repotting dazed cacti

finding insect-small petals

atop surviving antennae

 

too hot by afternoon

reading inside is small prelude

to dozing on the words

 

a handful of daisies thank you

brought home bright

find a quiet place in a vase

 

water reaches its level

keeping them bright

their exuberant explode

 

tangle reminder at nightfall

of all the suns in existence

tiny in the night sky
