Dandelions and Daisies by adewpearl Written with gratitude. |
|
Dandelions, daisies, butterflies and bees, fireflies and fairies, God gave us all of these. Whenever I feel certain that everything's gone wrong, when I'm convinced the path to grace is far too hard and long, I sip some honeysuckle, take shade beneath the trees, keep company with fairies, and there I find my peace. |

Author Notes I have been touched recently by poems of writers on this site who struggle with disease, disability, financial hardship, memories of mistreatment - I just wanted to offer my reflections on how I try to cope when life becomes overwhelming to me. This is not a simplistic solution to problems that are far too great to overcome by picking a daisy, just a way to say we all need a chance to back away from the terrible things in our lives once in a while if only for a few seconds. |
