Daffodils Poems

the yellows are winning
dandelions and daffodils leading the way
sun shines her yellow on the earth
spring prances into sight with bird trill tune

the yellows are lively 
adding happiness to the season
as we plant yellow marigolds 
surrounded by tiny butterflies showing their...Read More

WHO'S COUNTING

Before one sketches,
best to know if a giraffe, 
only has three legs.

What nights began at dawn
For the day is strained to
end with the setting of the
Sun
Lonely nights have women
To be less than perfect angels

Days eager end leaves her cold
Must these strangers have
Need for her company
Must strangers make mention
Of those nights
Whos whispers...Read More

I threw my coat into the back seat because it felt like summer.
Forty-seven degrees! A heat wave after the below nine’s we had been having.
Let’s go swimming! I yelled to my husband who was still curled up in a blanket.
Shivering,...Read More

Whatever Weekend

Being humble common pathways ere,
I ought traveled nearby that lea,
Past the margin of my home there,
Where the daffodils fickle sprightly,

As I shared the natural trail lead,
General impressions befall o'er sunlit,
E'er lighthearted to the bird's melodies,
I travailed the character of...Read More

I try to visit her at least once a week
for lunch, or take her shopping, then spend
a few hours listening to a waterfall
of repeated small talk soaking my brain
and wearing away my endurance,
but pretending to hear for the first time....Read More

red roses and violets blue
fragrant scents redolent of you

ashen orchids pallid hues bear
sunbeams ignite goldenrod hair

sunflowers tease touching blue skies
emerald-green jewels dance in faceted eyes

daffodils crown daisies add style
silver waters mirror her luring smile

foxglove hues ornament silken arms
mirror hedges lining...Read More

Piercing silence with a smile
       a smile so wide it tempts the trees

Flowers mean friendship and happiness
Coloured so gorgeous by the Almighty God
Flowers give us the best we need to begin a new day
Flowers bloom especially in the month of May
Flowers glow like amber lights nowadays...Read More

Wealth of Spring

Assorted spring flowers, naked, rise in morning sun
Breaking through a thin blanket of snow, earth spun.
Cascades of dainty narcissus smile with golden faces
Drinking up the sun as morning warmth embraces.
Enjoy the heavenly floral scent that gardens bring.
Fledglings high...Read More

I walk the garden run
   in the icy chill of winter sun,
 where flowers once bloomed in their colorful glow
   but now sleep silently beneath the snow;
clear and ever on the move alone

I looked out of the window it was all cloud and fog

As I look at nature, it’s sure delight,
because what I see is a lovely sight.
Can’t you hear the birds take flight?
daffodils sway to the left and to the right,
Eagles soar, with keen and good eyesight. 
fish swim, in ocean such...Read More

the daffodil folk
by Michael R. Burch

to live among the daffodil folk...
slip down the rainslickened drainpipe...
suddenly pop out
the GARGANTUAN SPOUT...
minuscule as alice, shout
yippee-yi-yee!
in wee exultant glee
to be leaving behind the LARGE
THREE-DENALI GARAGE.

Buttercups, daffodils and bluebells mark my garden so sweetly
One row of flowers enhancing the surroundings rather neatly
Tomatoes, carrots, beans, peas and onions growing underground
By July I will have the most glorious garden of anyone around

A delicate daffodil tenaciously pushes her way through the snow. 
Her cousin Gladys is next to her, doing the same thing but faster.
I love spring she says, it is our time to beautify and petal show.
Gladys replied yes, we are...Read More

"The Odyssey of We are Centre"



Where does he come through 
with his fishing lines?
Casting off metaphors
worms of vitriol
hooked and dipped,
he’s so green backed  
rolling in grandiose 
self published flack
unhip and seasoned 
with his tart rye 
swallowed for kicks
pulling deep...Read More

For My Cunning Daffodil Beautiful

So cunning and yet lovely
Yet still running
Skill is cunning,
And so are you.
Such a blurred view
you’re a ocean beautiful,
So cunning and yet lovely

running waves of blue
Up to the skies,
billowing, bright enchantment 
so are your eyes.
So cunning and...Read More

I wandered lonely as a cloud* 
to places far and wide
I often thought it would be fun 
to rain down on a bride
Or maybe on a summer Fete
as rain is something people hate
When dressed up in their finery
they saunter in...Read More

LOVE OVER THE AIR

They both; met on the net, they seemed, so well, matched
Her sitting there; in her hair curlers, married, but detached

Dressed in her tattered night-gown, cigarette in her mouth
Her boobies lacked their elasticity, were now heading south

Told her;...Read More

The garden lies dormant all winter, dreaming wet dreams, visualizing March and April's growth, keeping the perennials close to her chest, warming their bulbs.
Anticipating the new annuals the gardener will bring to her.  Geraniums, lilies and tulips, only a...Read More
