the daffodil’s farewell

 

YouTube video presented by studio arago.

Springtime for the daffodil is brief

For us the days end

On a wistful note

We will miss the joy they bring

But bringing joy is hard work

So we don’t begrudge them

Taking time for a rest

Next year they will return

While we remain to carry on

Perhaps, like the daffodil

Once we pause to rest

We, too, will one day return
