Joyce Johnson Poet Rhyme

Yellow Blasts

Short February will soon be gone
with warmer March fast coming on
bringing surprises that she yields, 
of bright yellow daffodils filling fields.
They're also part of my yard decor.
Every fall I plant some more.

Each year my gardening magazine
shows new daffodils not before seen.
I'm eager for the yellow shades,
one blooming before the other fades
When basking in their golden glow,
if the sun's not shining, I don't know.
