The first couple of lines of this daffodil poem came to me as I was driving to my mother's house about a week ago. I sometimes write rough drafts of poems in my head.Elaine Magliarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09829330276633865868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-81063994715748978472010-04-01T11:43:19.486-04:002010-04-01T11:43:19.486-04:00Great poem, Elaine.
