Day 83 - Easter flowers


It's only fitting that the daffodils should be blooming on Easter Sunday...


The Daffodils
Aileen Fisher


The daffodils, the daffodils.

They plan it all ahead:
They bottle yellow sunshine up
To take along to bed.

They know that they will sleep for months
Till cold and snow are gone,
And so they bottle sunshine up
Before they start to yawn.

And then when Spring is not-quite warm,
And days are not quite mellow,
They poke up little goblets full
Of yellow, yellow, yellow.

Happy Easter!
