Springing Up!

 Look what I found in the backyard today! Yes, the Daffodils are up!



I wonder if the Daffodil
Shrinks from the touch of frost,
And when her veins grow stiff and still
She dreams that life is lost?
Ah, if she does, how sweet a thing
Her resurrection day in spring!

One if my favorite spring sights!!! Daffodils tend to be the "sunrise dawning the first day of Spring".
Ps ...love your previous post of purple fields too

What a wonderful thing to see this time of year. I was talking to a customer yesterday and she was saying that she spotted daffodils just poking up out of the ground and I told her I saw a robin. We cheered for the fact that those were both sure signs of spring. This morning the ground is covered with snow.
