Analysis of "Sea of Gold"



Once,I happened upon a field of wild daisies.....
Well it had appeared as all others before...
Just a bunch of pretty wild flowers by the score...
"I then began to look at the yellow sea as each an idividuale...
Oh then what a sight to behold a yellow sea of gold....
My gaze had drifted as never bfore...
Until it came to rest upon barren feet of old ....
I then began to realize that it took only barren feet of old....
to make one tiny yellow flower,
into a prescious sea of gold..
In Loving memory of Darryl R Kuhn and the
lives in which he blessed
