All spring she scattered the daisy leaves;
They only mocked her as they fell.
She said: “The daisy but deceives;
‘He loves me not,’ ‘he loves me will,’
One story no two daisies tell.”
Ah foolish heart, which waits and grieves
Under the daisy’s mocking spell.
- Helen Hunt Jackson (Helen Hunt)
Every Spring I revel in the masses of daisies that appear in one corner of my garden here in Tarlton, South Africa – no matter how cold the Winter has been, they’re the first to welcome the warmer weather with their beautiful colours!
