"Daffodils are her favorite flower..."

I wandr'd lonely as a cloud


That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine


And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they


Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company:
I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie


In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.














What I see from my window:









































Last year, Hannah opened my eyes to the world of daffodils and bulbs. We would walk through her neighborhood where she would point out the best of ones, and she would show me hers. I was in love! So this year I got some for myself, but I believe I have "daffodil fever," so I will probably be putting daffodils in every able spot next year. They are so pretty and happy!


Meaning of the daffodil: regard, rebirth, new beginnings, unrequited love, you're the only one, chivalry, eternal life. :)
