I pick a Yellow Daffodil

Love in the springtime

I Pick a Yellow Daffodil

by jack

 

O’ precious stars of heavens light

So loving is thy glow

With moon aloft a golden sight

Across the fields does show

 

The days of wandering alone

Will soon come to an end

Beneath the glistening that’s shown

My very heart I send

 

Of natures gracious majesty

My tired eyes do see

The beauty that is brought this day

To stand in front of me

 

A portrait of a love that’s real

In painted colored lines

No longer can my heart conceal

The truth that you are mine

 

Along a grassy pathway walk

I breathe the morning air

Of wonders sent to fill my mind

For always you are there

 

I pick a yellow daffodil

And hold it to the sky

For all to see my love for you

And those who wonder why

 

I say these words in honest truth

So deeply from inside

This smile you see is ample proof

No longer can it hide

 

So shout it through the valley green

Beneath the stars above

Forever let them shine on you

The precious girl I love

You are such a master at this style...the rhyme and the beat are perfect. You are also a master of imagery, which I love. There is nothing worse than reading a piece that you cannot close your eyes and visualize, but this is never a problem with your work.

The third to last stanza is my favorite--it is simple, and yet the meter and flow are so starkly precious. Well done.

Romance and flowers, springtime and love - common themes uncommonly mingled in this absolutely lovely poem. I know plenty of Jersey boys, but none who share their soul so beautifully. Thank you for sharing!
