April 25: Love Poem

 Today’s prompt!


A daisy, 

for all of its mythology, 

smells like urine.

(But then,

So does a home

with small children)

[Can’t get it

Out of the rug]


Believe me,

I’d take all, 

all

The daisies

In the universe

(Pre-heat death)

[will there be?

Flowers? After

we are gone?]

To have that

smell,

(A toddler’s calling

card)

As long

as the smell

shall stay

(Not even 

Urine-Annihilator

sprays can make

it stop)

If it meant

I get you

([All of]you)

in the deal.
