Bliss Carman – THE DAISIES POEM

Posted in Poetry

Over the shoulders and slopes of the dune
I saw the white daisies go down to the sea,
A host in the sunshine, an army in June,
The people God sends us to set our hearts free.

The bobolinks rallied them up from the dell,
The orioles whistled them out of the wood;
And all of their saying was, “Earth, it is well!”
And all of their dancing was, “Life, thou art good!”
Bliss Carman.
