Mellow Yellow Monday: Daisies
These yellow daisies,
raked by wind and rain, cannot
take away my pain.*

This creates mystery within me…wondering if you are in pain…if so, I am so sorry.
poignant and sad. I do hope you’ll have a good week.
So sad.
Very sad poem, but the daises are very pretty and cheery. Happy MYM!
For some reason the photo is not appearing – I have refreshed several times! But like the others, I feel there is a sadness in your poem that is very real! Walk in peace!
Now the photo has appeared right after I posted my comment! The daisies are very bright and lovely…but still I wonder!
Gemma,
I added this disclaimer as a footnote:

All is well!

Obviously loved dearly by someone….
Anyone who has lost someone dear can relate.
That is very beautiful and very sad at the same time – I’m sorry for your sadness.
I learn from you again about the “my” in the poets perspective. Good to know it’s all a poem and not in real life. Happy Monday!

Feeling sorry for the ones who lost a loved one…
The cheerful yellow daisies must bring only the happy memories back.
The true meaning of the roadside memorial is such a sad one.
Sorry to hear that you’re in pain. Love the shot and the haiku.
Happy MYM!

Sounds like Elvis or maybe Hank Williams. I think I know that tune.
any flower at any graveyard tell of a story that the person who placed it there is hurting.
sorry ………
