daisy my eyes

daisy my eyes
so they bloom summer
the way plants know it

unseeing mirrors
of petal and stigma
reflecting sun

About Susan L Daniels

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    daisy my eyes
    in the cut throat of my vase
    turned sun ward shining

    Weave and twist this further and bigger for us, Daniels, so that we actually get a summer. We are oh so desperate. Maybe in Buffalo you are desperate too. But we’re closer to the mouth that makes all this wind, and it’s still giving us hell.
