Daisy's Try Poem by Elmer Romulo Valdez

Daisy's Try

Rating: 5.0


Your fate is in your hands,
And that of our young love.

Let not your attempts
Just blow in the wind,
To fly to an eternity
Of nothingness.

Let your efforts bloom,
And gradually develop,
Into a magnificent
Tower of self.

Be a woman of concern,
And total dedication,
A repository of ideals,
And upright principles.

Be the constant flower,
Where my dreams reside,
Never wilt, never bow,
Stay and live forever.

This one reminds me of an old childhood game of picking the petals off the daisy 'she loves me, she loves me not; she loves me, she loves me not'. Perhaps it's the title. Yes, the metaphor of nature serves the poet well and this piece demonstrates that fact. I also like the authority you demand of your 'flower'. love, Allie xxxx
