GOLDEN daisies in the meadow,
Gently sway and nod and beckon;
"Come and play," they seem to say.
And a throng of laughing children
Troop in answer through the grasses,
Trample down the daisies gay,
Pluck them, pelt them at each other; --
Still they gaily nod and beckon,
Softly saying, "Come and play."
