more petals

And sometimes the "falling down, falling down" and "on my back" parts of daisy dead petals seem kind of like a four year old or a kindergarten girl
falling on the hill
banished and running away from a neighbor's yard, with bubbles
soap gets in her eyes, blurry and smarting in pain
a terrible new feeling, falling on her back, no one comes to save her
was it really that traumatic? geez, it was only falling on a hill
but yes it was to that child
interesting
a new way of survival
a time to make one's way alone
time to get through it and get back home
~~~~~
But also, dead petals, that's like loves me loves me not, and falling down all over the river and wishing she could feel like this forever seems to be about love or creativity, and the difference between personal feelings/experiences and outer world scenarios
~~~~~
it's a good little song
not often commented on
like a quiet child in a bakery
like a child staring at an ant with intense concentration
maybe even a masterpiece
