I love daffodils, they are pretty. They certainly brighten our dull and boring winters.

Winters can freeze lives. Your poem reminds me life is tough but we must take the challenge like daffodils snapping a pose.

Thanks for sharing

It's a smile of daffodils which brings us joy in much of our lives. It's beautifully written. The sentences flow with clarity. Excellent work! Thank you for sharing!

I like the play on "freeze" as in keeping still in order to pose for a photo and make a still-life image, with the daffodils smiling for the photo. Vlever at every level. Well done. A beautiful photo too, excellent choice. Best wishes for your entry.

Love poems about daffodils. Your words capture nature in action and how there is a beautiful result. Excellent haiku form that paints a picture of nature.

A haiku that feels perfectly in tune with the essence of nature AND the influence nature has on us. Love the "freezing" for a pose/photo inference...and your final line ties this all up with a bow...

The first two line of this poem flow and connect well. The last line says
it all! I liked very much the last line of this poem. Daffodils are uplifting
and I always remember the poem about Daffodils by William Wordsworth! This poem gives a lovely message. The artwork is awesome and compliments these words. Have a great Sunday!...Maria
