A Rose Among The Daisies

As I walk amongst a country meadow
I catch the scent of Nature’s goods
But as I walk further in the grass
I come upon a field of daisies
With a single rose in the very middle.
I question myself upon picking it
Should it die if I break the stalk?
Or will it live on
Nourished by the love in my hands?
I ponder upon the inquiry regarding her
For she is a unique flower
A rose among the daisies.

In my dreams, I view myself
Working as a humble gardener
Tending to all that is beautiful
I catch a glimpse of something unusual
Red among the carpet of white upon the ground.
To find a sight so rare
I wish to hold her within my hand
But do I even deserve to
Embrace something as lovely as she?
I cannot deny the fact of loving her so
As I cherish this most beautiful sight
A rose among the daisies
