~ Daisy Stems ~

The daisy stems reach upward
They turn unto the light,
To soak up all the goodness
From the very source of life.



Their pretty leaves twirl outward
To curl, aspire for height,
They know just where to go
To escape the grasp of blight.



'Tis always, only upwards
Where life shall truly be,
So upward is our gaze
For all we need to live.



There beyond our eyesight
Is where we look to find,
The never ending love
The lifeline, yours and mine.

Poetry From The Heart

.....and that will be heaven
at last the first unclouded
seeing, to stand like the flower
turned full face to the sun, drenched
with light in the centre
held while the circling planets
hum with utter joy, seeing and knowing
at last, in every particle
seen and known, and not turning
away...never turning away
again....
`Evangeline Paterson`
