The quiescent oaks shiver in the cold Their fugacious leaves blown away in the breeze February will you bring me closer to spring bold If anyway possible would you please Now the susurration of winter's wind So different from sighing of the pines How I long for angular sun's warmth, my friend For time in the sun, how I have pined There's pale gray wool flung across the sky A cold white shawl draped upon the lawn Before the sun rises to warm by and by When sun illuminates the crack of dawn Chilled daffodils tender shoots peek through the earth Seeking the sun's early light and warm touch Once more to refresh the bulbs' life with mirth Invite early insects to tickle its trumpet and such

We see a lot of daffodils in November and they are supposed to be protected. Trust children to cut them off to sell them.

Victor, sad that children have to cut them probably to help their family be able to survive. Daffodils are beautiful and offer such hope of warmer weather especially here where I live. Thanks for the visit. Sara K

Such a smooth and captivating poem, Sara K! I loved your imagery, too. February has indeed ignited visions of spring...visions you captured beautifully. Our daffodils are peeking through the earth, seeking the warm Texas sun. They seem to be dancing with delight. A delightful read. Hugs, Sara

Seems your area is right on schedule, Sara B. I can remember as a child remembering that it had snowed in March and the daffodils were up and blooming and thinking it would kill them all, but it did not. Thanks for the kind review. Sara K
