Daffodil Day
Valley where the sun greets first,
Spectacle of gold, as if rehearsed.
Daffodil Day, spring whispers soft,
A symphony of petals, aloft.
Dancing in the breeze, a sea of flame,
Each one a sunbeam, with its own name.
Nature's revival, a golden crest,
On Daffodil Day, the earth is dressed.
Carpet of yellow, under blue skies,
Reflects the warmth, in a lover's eyes.
This day of bloom, a promise new,
Life in color, morning dew.

Inspirations Behind
I was inspired by the first day of spring, when I wandered into a valley near my home. The sight of countless daffodils under the morning sun filled me with an indescribable sense of peace and optimism. It was as if the earth itself had awakened from its slumber to remind us of the cycle of life and the beauty that awaits after the coldest winters. This experience moved me to capture the essence of Daffodil Day, not just as a date on the calendar, but as a moment of profound natural beauty and emotional rebirth.
