dazzled daisy in field of full yellow
one of a crowd of thousands
from afar a tad of blur
yet imagine
petals distinctly curved
shoots of brown black extended softly
call out to the sun of midday
dazzled daisy in field of full yellow
delight of clouds passing this way
alas, one drop then another
thirst-wrenching struggle sustained
full circle in field of full yellow
adheres dusk to another day
