DAFFODILS
In my faint quest for refuge, to shield my bossom from the envious eyes of the summer sun. And sooth my throat with some sap from the nature's pool, I snatch some brief respite from the rill.
The daffodils, gently smiling would bend to caress my black blanketed skin in cheerful flowering.
Their soft touch, subtle, hardly felt yet present, makes melodies as the wind tosses them like colourful kites.
In between the rocks and reefs, their succulent edges adamant against the winds would bend in slow submission.
Their images floated through the water, like the transparent paintings of Margaret Thatcher.
Oh! What a blissful sight!
Yellow, green, and red - colours of the rainbow.
This could be heaven.
I danced in my heart, according to the chirping of the birds and the melodies of the daffodils.
And I also danced in my heart, according to the waves of the water.
