Racing across the yard with an outstretched arm

Your little fist clinched tightly around the stems

Of the most treasured bouquet of them all.

Some will not understand how this could be…

Afterall, it is only a weed!

All I can tell you is it simply is not to me….

It is the love and the joy twinkling in your eyes,

It is the wonder and the wishes in disguise!

It is the innocence, love and joy of my children

all wrapped up in one… -Daphne
