Daffodils

A blaze o’yalla hit me
Whilst I drove tae Aiberdeen
As in the poet’s Rainbow,
M’hert leapt at the scene.

A mile o’daffies swayin
An whisperin in the win’
Aa tellin’ me that Spring had come
Wi’wild geese on the wing.

I wish tae linger wi’them,
But the rule o’road’s aye nigh;
My spirit fed, the joy was left
Tae ither passers-by.
