Hi Rachel, I'm so sorry I nearly missed this poem that speaks from the heart. I would love to be a part of that daisy chain you speak of. There's a humbling feeling as I read, that's spiritual and happy just to be.

Beautifully written....

I've never seen a Blue Jay before, so it was such a pleasure to read your poem. I've read they frequent gardens in Canada, it must be such a wonderful sight with their pretty blue feathers.

Thank you so much for sharing.

This poem is so thoughtful
