Severus Alexander

Daffodils

There perched, upon a craggy hill

A Night Bird from down-below

She wandered out into the day

From beneath the bows and leaves

 

Ventured from the shady still

And the quiet slow

Frivolous, she had play

And took flight on the breeze

 

She rose on grace of will

With beauty that few men know

She flew up high and far away

Above the clouds and the daffodils
