Daffodils a Drift

Snow drifts  buoyant on the breeze downy  
like a dandelion seed touching the cheek of dawn delicately...
Endless crystalline patterns of white grace     
each hollow, cleft and limb formed in rose pink light..

Upon cold surfaces   of glass  or stone, snow glances   
Up on the warmer growths of somnambulant grass it clings 
a fusion of facets, a light Spring feeding for rising daffodils 
each jade green spear engulfed in a pocket of white...

Great piece and fantastic win. Our fields of daffodils Are in full color right now. We will be having a tulip tour all through the week of April but they are not showing much color as yet. The tourists are here looking for them. I live in the midst of the bulb fields. Love, Joyce

Very nice poem, I enjoyed reading about the snow drips, also your verses a light spring feeding for rising daffodils sparkles one's imagination and that picture just makes it more visible and pleasant to look at.
