Poetry Friday: Daffodowndilly by A.A. Milne


My dad was a Welshman and we always had lots of daffs in the house and garden in the spring. When we were kids, he always called that daffodowndillies, which we loved as kids. And this is my favorite poem about this happy springtime flower. I hope you like it, too.


Poetry Friday is a weekly blogging event in which poets, writers, readers, and lovers of poetry share blog posts about poetry. Poetry Friday is being hosted today by Rebecca at Sloth Reads

  2. Daffodils are my favorite. We don't have them here, but I always enjoy people's daffodil photos so much every year!

  3. Love this poem, and fingers crossed tht winter really is dead! I'm so grateful for the sunshine and 50 degree days we've been having after a winter that started early and delivered days days upon days of bitter temps and snow after snow.

  5. Love this poem! We have so many daffodils (which are just emerging) that we've had to thin them out in recent years. Happy Spring!
