Trying to sparkle
Amongst confusion
How’d she end up here
Once again, questioning
Field Daisy born of trouble
Rocks breathing life into her
Thrives beyond comprehension
Disbelieving in her random beauty
Appearing timeless, and perfect here

Born in a difficult place, this flower doesn’t bend from the struggle, but thrives from the rock — I love how you found beauty and strength in this daisy.

Oh Audrey, I absolutely love daisies. And Gerberas. My wedding bouquet was of Gerberas. I had to order them in from São Paulo.
Hope you’re doing well. I’ve been a bit absent because I’m in Canada with family right now. How’s your trip going?

Daisies are so pretty…I bet your bouquet was gorgeous.
All is well. My trip is busy. A lot of late nights trying to fit in writing and family time. I think you can understand… We’re having fun. Is Canada coolish still? Hope your family time is going well. Hugs! 🙂

It was really gorgeous and sweet. Nice and bright orange.
I hear you about trying to find time. I’m finding it hard to fit the writing in. Glad you’re having fun.
Canada was quite cool when we arrived. Colder than our beginning winter weather in north-east Brazil. It’s gotten a bit warmer though and I’m hoping that it just keeps getting better.
Keep having fun Audrey.
Big hugs and blessings.

I do! Why? Well, dig the beast out if you think we should have him.

Well, I guess, because, probably, I’m fairly certain, it would be in light of the fact that I thought of you instantly when I came across these flowers living in boulders. Maybe you could dig Charlie out? Duke, I belive snakes live there too…

Now, first we’re going to put our face in the water and blow bubbles. See t’isn’t scary. Next your going to lie down on your back and I’m going to hold you up and on top of the water. Relax. Let me hold your shoulder and place my arm under you. I promise not to tickle you.

I tell you true, Audrey, if it were not for some of the people on WP, my life would be so barren at times. You have become an Oasis. My life needs changes, yet I don’t know how to make them. I’m like those daisies growing out of a rock. Me. Totally. And I want those daisies to be growing in nice soft fertile ground, preferably near an Ocean. My dream. Part of it anyways. Goodnight, my friend. Off to Dream Land. xx Amy
