Daisy, Pretty Daisy!

This is another photo that my hubby took the other day of the daisies in our yard. I did a whole post about them yesterday. They made me so happy that last night I wrote a poem about them. I know....I'm sappy. :-) What can I say? That's me!...I'll share that poem at the end of the post today.
    I was so inspired by those gorgeous daisies. I think everybody should have some! And since mine are not for sale, I decided to show you some daisy inspired things on ETSY that 'Are' for sale!

   I love each and every one of these items! And I can't believe how reasonably priced they all are too! So, buy yourself a few daisies! And while you're wearing, looking at, or using them, I hope they make you smile as much as mine have made me smile the last few days.

Daisy, Pretty Daisy

Daisy, pretty daisy,
with your petals all sprawled out;
Making sunshine, bees and children
wonder what you're all about.

All spread out in the garden,
up the sidewalk, down the lane;
So much prettier to look at
than all those street lights down on Main.

Daisy, pretty daisy,
in your red or white or pink.
Letting bees and flies land on you
so that they can take a drink.

It's hard to see you basking
in the sun and not just smile,
'cause you look like friends just hanging out
and talking for a while.

Daisy, pretty daisy,
rain or shine you have no care.
You just smile at passersby
and make us happy that you're there.
