NAMAQUALAND DAISIES

Nature’s gift for all,
Magnificent display set,
Daisies extend far!

In mountains and creeks,
Colour carpet touching sky...
Beauty is simple!

Desert now alive,
Colours are many and mixed.
Hundreds of miles bloom!

A treat for the eyes and the mind. Huzzah, rlt47:)

Very nice. I'm not all that familiar with writing Haikus, is this all one long Haiku or three separate ones?

Sometimes we have the greatest gift of God before our eyes and we do not see it. Simple things like the color of flowers, their smell. It has no price in our hearts.
