arms stretched for miles
matching the horizon
head tilted back
blond ringlets fly
little printed dress
caught in her breeze
spins in unison
seemingly infinite …
falling onto her back
a resounding thud brings a giggle
preceding a roll onto her belly
the sun warmed field grass
pillows her gently
glancing at miniature daisies
she begins to braid
long green stems twirl and twist
leaving white petals in a perfect circle
dotted with sun colored centers
careful examination
brings a smile
and a squeal of glee
as she places her crown
delicately on soft curls
princess daisy chain rules the meadow –
