In Massachusetts, I am so excited when these Sentinels of Spring burst through the soil.

It is refreshing whenever and where ever!!!!!

Oh, I do look forward to the daffodils! Wonderful analogies and photo. Thanks for sharing them, Priscilla!

thank you for your comment, Alison.

They are beautiful and you can almost set your clock for their arrival. Mine are coming up but I haven't noticed any buds on them yet, their stems still look too short to me. These will be the first of my newly planted daffodils in my new flower bed this year. I hope they will be as pretty as the ones in your picture. Thank you for sharing your early spring announcement with us. Your poem says it all.

Daffodils always enchant me--their color and their sway. This year they just kept coming and coming and coming.

Ours are just peeking up from the ground now. Always a welcome sight :o)

Thank you for comment, Quinn. Are your daffodils dilling about now?

I absolutely love this! Daffodils always make me feel the arrival of spring - a perfect photo for the rhyme. Wonderful description, great response to the prompt. Thank you for sharing at Rhyme Sublime.

I like the blooming flowers, I like the simple verse.

Priscilla, what a lovely poem-it says so much in so few words. The picture is lovely as well. I enjoyed both.

Ah, those scouts. Gotta love 'em. Brave, they are to be showing their little fragile faces.

An inspiring sight and words, Priscilla.

They haven't bloomed yet, but they are up :o) Should be a couple of nice days this week, so I expect to see their smiling faces soon. I'll be planting some early things in window boxes tomorrow too. That always makes me happy :o)
