I Am a Daffodil

What flower am I?


I represent my country which I love,
Springtime and I go hand in glove.

To see me makes everyone smile,
I grow in every garden can see me for miles.

My vibrant colour yellow and bright,
I blow my own trumpet, Cos I know I am right .

If cut I don't last,  just a day or so,
So please in your garden let me grow.

My scent is not noted as a perfume,
Yet a tub of me fills up a room.

On March 1st my significance will be on a high scale,
When I am worn in the lapel, of everyone, from Wales

I am a daffodil, I herald in springtime
Growing straight, proud, cos it's forgiving time.

Meaning of Daffodils.
Give daffodils to someone when as a token of forgiveness or give them away as a token of appreciation for their honesty.

Hi, Seren, What a beautiful poem you have penned! Good luck in the contest. My favorite line is about don't cut me, let me grow. How true! And how quickly flowers die after being cut. Let them live! and let their beauty glow and blow in the breeze for others to see. Peace , Darlene
