The Semons' Daily Daffodils: I am generally not in favor of nagging, but sometimes it pays off...

October 3, 2011

I am generally not in favor of nagging, but sometimes it pays off...

So for the past three years, when Bobby has asked what I would most like for my birthday or Christmas, I ALWAYS respond with, "A cookbook holder."

And every year, I do not get one.

You can then imagine my surprise when Bobby returned home from the weekend at his parent's, proudly handing me this:

He made it all by himself and I LOVE it!

Daffodils

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
Daffodils

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed--and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

-William Wordsworth
