Daffodils are long-lasting flowers. It was only today that the ones on my desk finally started to look dried out. I replaced them with fresh ones of a fancier variety. Here is a picture of them standing cool and collected against the chaos that is my bookshelves.
Though the different types of daffodil don’t all bloom at exactly the same time, almost all of them are open now and jostling for attention. I may ooh and aah over the fancier ones sometimes, but it’s the classic yellow ones that really pop against a spring-blue sky. They are among the most cheerful things in the universe.
