Daisy Days

   Long ago and far away.

My sister and I danced in the daisies.

Around and about and around again,

till the daisies got dizzy,

and circled around our bare feet.

We fell down laughing

at the confused clouds,

in the spinning blue sky,

till it all slowed down.

And we were up again,

and around and about,

and around and around,

and again around,

till the daisies turned blue

like the sky,

and the sky

white like the daisies.

We were pushed down.

So on our bellies

in those blue daisies

we lay.



Long ago and far away.
