  1. A Daisy Chain

    Share Share Post
    When I want to make a daisy chain. I go out to the field to get a long daisy. I gather some of the small daisies. I put a hole in the daisies. I put them in one by one on the long daisy. Sometimes I tie them together. I put it on my neck then. If it is not big enough, I take them all off again. Then I search to see if I could a longer daisy. When I get it I put all the daisies in on it again. When I have it made, if it is big enough I leave it on my neck. When I have it made for a few days the daisies wither away.
