DAISY.
I have a valued friend, of thoughtful mien:
Intelligent she is, and sweet, I ween,
As any of the daughters of a queen,—
Her name is Daisy.
Intelligent she is, and sweet, I ween,
As any of the daughters of a queen,—
Her name is Daisy.
Her mind is stored with knowledge of great worth;
Her heart o'erflows with sympathy and mirth;
Her thoughts are pure and chaste as e'er had birth;
Most noble Daisy!
Her heart o'erflows with sympathy and mirth;
Her thoughts are pure and chaste as e'er had birth;

'Tis pleasant to possess so true a friend!
Like the day's eye, which light and gladness sends,
And gilds the day with beauty to the end,—
So shine, sweet daisy!
Like the day's eye, which light and gladness sends,
And gilds the day with beauty to the end,—
So shine, sweet daisy!
May peace and light and joy from Heaven above,
Upon thy path through life a blessing prove;
May health and happiness and constant love
Cheer thy life, Daisy!
Upon thy path through life a blessing prove;
May health and happiness and constant love
Cheer thy life, Daisy!
