Daisies have always looked like the sun to me. They need eyes and a smile to make a complete composition. Just to see these them grow in the ditches out by the farm or along houses in town make me smile. Because of their fragrance I don’t gather them in a vase but now that I know they are healthy I’ll think about pulling out the vase.
