“A wizard must have passed this way
Since — was it only yesterday?
Then all was bare, and now, behold,
A hundred cups of living gold!”
~ Emma C. Dowd, “Daffodil and Crocus,” April 1902

Inspired by the daffodil above, my niece shared some of the lovely daffodils from her own garden, sitting pretty in a vase she rescued from a neighbor who was about to get rid of it. What a happy choice!
