my pet daisy is dying
lil’ petals curling black
still
~she loves me~
does she not?
brave face fading
despite cater-pillars bracing her
there is nothing to be done
and love pulling her
to save her…
she’s a sweet pet,
honey bees needing her
no bark and no bite,
soothsayer
and I wonder if I should
bury her all the same,
so she can push herself up
lifting
finding new life. . .
