Analysis of The lonely daffodil.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



The lonely daffodil. 

I look and see that life is full of care. So why do you stand there and stare? Don't look up at the sky and watch the clouds float by. The sun shines and the birds in the tree sing, but if you are waiting for that smooth gold-shining ring, it's just a thing. The gold you need comes from within, and it starts with a seed, and love is the water that makes it bloom like the mighty daffodils in the breeze. I want to pick you up from the field; you see, you are that one daffodil, and it's the only thing I need to feel.
