Steemit Monthly Author Challenge #6-2019 - Day 30 || Sweet innocence
#Monthlyauthorchallenge initiated by @steemit-mac
The beautiful daisy is a solar symbol, a beacon of light in the darkness... and this is why it was brought to the graves of children.
I don't want to write a sad post although... I feel really down these days. So I will let Richard Coe to praise The White Daisy. I will show you a photo of a playful daisy... wind was whispering peek-a-boo that day.
There is a little, dainty flower,
That lifts its golden eye,
Without a single tinge of shame,
Unshrinking to the sky;
But yet, so sweetly free from art,
It captivates the thoughtful heart!
It glads the merry month of May,
On August smiles a cheer;
It greets the pale October day,
"The saddest of the year"—
And still an open bosom shows
Amid the cold December snow.
It roams upon the mountain-top,
To catch the morning sun;
It plays about the meadows, where
The merry brooklets run;
Upon the forest solitudes
The pretty daisy's form intrudes.
And oft-times on the infant's grave,
This little flower is found;
Nor aught more fitting thus to bloom
On consecrated ground;
'Tis beautiful without pretence—
An emblem sweet of Innocence!

Thank you for this cute rose and for the amazing post for SeasonChallenge.
Something really sad happened this weekend and it really brought me down (car crush, a dead colleague, his wife - my friend in a poor condition and their daughter has to face multiple interventions.... and some dead kids from the other car). I suppose it's all about life being unfair to some.
