This is the beautiful wild daffodil. It's the flower that Wordsworth would have seen. It's small and dainty, and has a subtle charm that today's larger and more brightly coloured daffodils lack.
They have reminded me to look at the
famous poem again, and appreciate it.
These are in Turnastone Churchyard, which
earlier in the year was a carpet of
snowdrops.
and did your heart with pleasure fill and dance with the daffodils when you read the poem,mine

yes - it's a wonderful poem, and shines through the familiarity we all have with it.
