A Garden Of Wishes : Gogyohka

A garden of daffodils
stands in my heart
each daffodil
a wish
for you.
As soft breeze flows
it carries
 these wishes
far away
to you.

 Gogyohka : Japanese poetry form, written in five lines, but each line generally represents one phrase.

A garden of wishes - lovely - and, I think, a very evocative metaphor when one stops and thinks about it . . . a lot goes on in a garden.

The opening stanza made me smile. Not just he heart full of the flowers, but that each were a wish for another. I hope that breeze carries them to the destination.
