Yellowness

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Yellowness.


With each advent of sun-showered yellow 
there steals
a springing of close-headed gold denseness 
in nearby fields.

Daffodil time comes frilly with captured
mass meaning
packed with herald heads and nodding 
gilt greetings.

Breathing in sunshine whatever the sky 
I bend to eye level
lie down in an ocean of yellowness 
and pretend to be floating then drown
in Spring-coloured bliss.

A yearly looked-for experience is this.

    'A yearly looked-for experience is this.'
    just like your poetry's:
    weekly, looked-for reading experience, dear Fay
    what a Time, to ink such vivid words
    reminding us
    of Nature's hope fuelling, majestic beauty

    I have not been out among the fields of Daffodils for two years now.... so whoopee ... am I ever looking forward to seeing thema again and later on those carpets of bluebells among the trees.
    Oh come on the springtime.... light me up in spirit.
    A really uplifting read today thank you.

      A wonderful poem with a stunning picture....as I look out my window this morning the world is covered in a blanket of snow. Can't wait to see wildflowers, etc! Thank you for that little bit of spring!

    • Rozina

      Stunning! I've only seen this in a formal garden but would love to see a field of daffodils as in your lovely poem.

      It is a wonderful time, even my daffodils are coming out and it is a glorious sign of spring.

      Unbuttoning the winter coat, and allowing its seed to sprout. Yearning for the rays of Sun, to welcome the change of season, and lay down a carpet of yellow, that only so poetic words as yours could display
