The Daffodils are Early this year
Daffodils and I, have always had this special relationship, they always seem to bloom just in the nick of time. I have written much in my journals about these little cups of golden sunshine. When I was a very small child my mother planted hundreds of them on the side of our house and perhaps this is where our love began.
Daffodils are such happy flowers. The golden light that they bring has always echoed spring is almost here in my heart and soul. These little flower friends seem to come just in the nick of time and when I need them the most to brighten my world. I am overjoyed to see their strength and grace as they burst through the earths frozen grip to make their presence. Daffodils stand-alone in the garden and make their show far earlier than most. Their simplicity and stature speaks those brave enough to go forth and blossom.
This year the Daffodils seem confused at the change of weather. They have arrived at least a month or more early, while I am please to see them, I know its too early. I wonder what will greet me in the darkest days of winter now that my friends have come so soon?
