Daffy little daffodils
each and every one
Stupid little daffodils
blooming in the sun

Daffy little daffodils
don't care 'bout rising prices
Stupid little daffodils
have no economic crisis

Daffy little daffodils
never dig nor delve
Stupid little daffodils
don't fear two thousand twelve

Daffy little daffodils
don't vacation in Bermuda
Stupid little daffodils
never search for Buddha

Daffy little daffodils
common sense escapes them
Stupid little daffodils
don't hate the bee that rapes them

Daffy little daffodils
don't know Barack Obama
Stupid little daffodils
don't care 'bout Octomama

Daffy little daffodils
they never fuss or fight
Stupid little daffodils
They don't care what I write

Daffy little daffodils
each and every one
Stupid little daffodils
blooming in the sun

And I love them every one!!! *S*

Beautiful little daffodils
Delight to this heart bring
Yellow heralds say winter's hold
Is giving way to spring!

Yo XOx Uriah xOX,

Where did you get the idea daffodils hate bees.

It's just the opposite, daffodils would die without bees.

I guess daffodils are happy being just the way they are but they do have to dig and delve to stay upright and alive.  It's true that they don't care what you write but you do and I do and many others do so why should they bother?     They may be stupid but there's beauty in stupidity if it keeps one free from useless cares. Enjoyed the read - will probably dream of a host of golden daffodils now.

I love this! ~ I have to say I giggled at the part of 2012.

Geeze, I have to say that I am a little nervous about that. But a lot of people say it's bogus, but I kinda get paranoid. Nerves? I don't know...

Again, I love this! ~ thanks for the fun read
