A daisy of the field (A pantoum)

And though pedestrian at best
A common daisy of the field
She rules the beat that's in my breast
Regardless of her humdrum wield.

A common daisy of the field
Just one of many of this earth
Regardless of her humdrum wield,
She is my only choice of worth.

Just one of many of this earth
She has the softness of a dove.
She is my only choice of worth.
Showers me with the girth of love.

She has the softness of a dove.
With the wit of a raconteur.
Showers me with the girth of love
And stories of a connoisseur.

With the wit of a raconteur
And though pedestrian at best
And stories of a connoisseur
She rules the beat that's in my breast.

Very lovely, Seymour. I admire all you talented people who can create these complicated pieces. It is certainly not easy! I get a headache just thinking about it! Again, well done!
