Daffodils in my Stone Cottage Garden |
The Song of the Daffodil Fairy
by Cicley Mary Barker
I’m everyone’s darling; the blackbird and starling
Are shouting about me from blossom and boughs.
For I, the Lent-lily, the Daffy-down-dilly,
Have heard through the country the call to arouse.
The orchards are ringing with voices a-singing
The praise of my petticoat, praise of my gown;
The children are playing, and hark! they are saying
That Daffy-down-dilly has come up to town!
The daffodil photos were taken by me and are all from my Stone Cottage Garden.

I've been waiting for this post! How lovely! What is that first one under the poem title called? It's so gorgeous with all of its fluffy ruffliness! Love the pics and the poem!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, Danni! All the daffodils were either here when we moved into the house or were gifts from friends. I don't know any of the hybrid names. -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures

Daffodils are so cheery but a little cheeky at the same time. My dad always planted them and I love to see abandoned rows of them out in a field.
