Here you will find the Poem The Daisies of poet James Stephens

The Daisies

IN THE scented bud of the morning?O, 
When the windy grass went rippling far, 
I saw my dear one walking slow, 
In the field where the daisies are. 

We did not laugh and we did not speak 
As we wandered happily to and fro; 
I kissed my dear on either cheek, 
In the bud of the morning?O. 

A lark sang up from the breezy land, 
A lark sang down from a cloud afar, 
And she and I went hand in hand 
In the field where the daisies are.
