me too. we have several daffodils in our yard, yellow-tipped, but tightly closed. this week a warming trend is predicted--my hope is that they survived the latest round of chilling weather and will blossom.
A few weeks ago, I saw the first daffodils of the season, and 'hope' was exactly what they looked like, even with the grey sky and the chill. That yellow would make the grimmest smile.
Observer. Also, author of the novel “After the Sour Lemon Moon.” I recorded a free audio version at the beginning of the pandemic. You can find it in my Instagram bio, in highlights.

ReplyDeleteThis was Sunday. They are all beautifully open now. I smile each time I walk past. Wishing you much yellow this week.
DeleteI keep opening up, then closing up....much like these buds, confused by the tarding spring
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel. Today is especially strange here in San Francisco. Moody weather. It is time for my afternoon coffee. I'm off!
DeleteDaffodils sing spring to me.
ReplyDeleteMe too, Jen.
DeleteOh I'm so wanting flowers and spring. And sleep and Susan to come back.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna get myself some yellow tomorrow!

DeleteThey sing spring. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Diane. You should see them today, blooming in full glory.
DeleteYes, the promise of spring in a pussy willow!
ReplyDeleteYes.
