just read this article: "top 10 facts about daisies"
my attention is drawn to this part:
#6 A daisy is actually two flowers in one
The (usually) white petals count as one flower and the cluster of (usually) tiny yellow disc petals that form the 'eye' is technically another.
when you look closely, the disk is made up of many tiny flowers squeezed together
the name "daisy" comes from "day's eye", they say
because the whole head closes at night and opens in the morning
can you imagine?
it looks like a tiny sun
and the petals as the rays
2 in 1
2 of 1, i would say
there's something awe-inspiring about this flower
the quality of being divine...
