At Carpe Diem, Kristjaan challenges us to create an all new haiku inspired on the haiku of an "archive-choice". So here is my new haiku 2019 worked from a 2015 haiku.

Really like the impression of "love's ardour' here...
Daisies know everything when it comes to love's ardour ❤️ Delightful verse, Gillena!

I loved the daisies and the honeysuckle threaded through your poems.
love's ardor
it's either yes or no
petal by petal
Riveting imagery!!
Apparently, this is a game of French origin. With 11 petals you can determine the outcome by choosing "loves me" or "loves me not" as the first line.
Adelaide
loves me, loves me not one is always hopeful for a positive outcome.
Oh, I DO hope it is true love!

Interesting shift in perspective--in the original each petal feels like a story being released, in the more recent poem I'm left with the impression that love itself is being (almost mechanically) put to the test.
Plucking daisy petals can be an interesting way to get to the truth...or not...
They do fall. I, hopefully, will not! (I'm too old for the games.)

Picking petals saying: she loves me, she loves me not was a bit of a risk as it was even money chance either would win. It was far better to have a buttercup place just under the chin and if you liked butter (with a yellow reflection) you were a match!
The falling of daisy petals is such a comforting image somehow. A lovely haiku, Gillena! :-)

Ah, sweet reminiscence for me.
He loves me he loves me not. We used to play this daisy petal game as children.Sweet haiku
This brings back such memories... of being young, innocent and the smell of summer in the pasture of my childhood... lovely Gilena, thank you!

I enjoyed both of these, Gillena - though the second piece, with its whimsical hope of a test for 'loves ardour' had an enchanting young-love innocence to it that was so charming pinned to a simple daisy (which, for some reason, I think of in terms of youth).
