"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud"

I WANDERED lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Just thought you would like a bit of William Wordsworth (1804), manly to make you think I'm intellectual and not just a pleb.

Even the little daffodils are coming out, and these are in my own front garden. Unfortunately they where in the shade when I captured it between showers.

Those water drops oh hell lets call them what they are raindrops, it is raining for a change then; well the drops suit the daff being that it is a plant of our soggy spring season:))

love the photo, verse is a tad corny. but a great shot nonetheless.. your photos never fail to impress... just avoid the poems!!!!

I knew the daffodil followed the primrose as you're in the UK. Beautiful.

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

@linnypinny @kathiecb Thank you ladies, I'm loving capturing these flowers as they are appearing, It will be bluebells soon.

Lovely daffodil and lucky you to have such a bright flower growing already. We're getting snow again this weekend!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

@genealogygenie Thank you Kim, I think we might have snow as well which will make the daffodils look different.
