BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES


BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES -A POEM

By Leila B Stockton 

Buttercups and daisies, pretty and so gay, 
Shining golden faces full of cheer alway, 
The raindrops only make you a thousand times more 
bright, 
Buttercups and daisies you are a winsome sight. 
(Cut) 

Cut Amid the tall green grasses, you nod to all Good-
 day, 
Mongst your petals gold and white, the breezes 
deftly play, 
The bees and butterflies delight, 
To hover o'er you on their flight,

And from the clear, blue sky above, 
The sun sends to you beams of love.
