In a Field of Spring Flowers

As a girl Iris Shneekira always loved the daisy flowers for their daring simplicity, their tenacious spirit, growing where they weren't supposed to and yet bringing more beauty to the street. In the springtime the daisies sprouted to the dismay of the gardeners, their perfect lawns looking more like the meadows they yearned to be. She never thought about the meaning of the daisy flower until she was a woman, too old to be making chains in the late afternoon sun. The daisy is about loyalty to love and commitment, and she is all about that.
