Poem on Daffolils (and Other Flowers), by e.e. cummings
in time of daffodils (who know
the goal of living is to grow)
forgetting why, remember how
in time of lilacs who proclaim
the aim of waking is to dream,
remember so (forgetting seem)
in time of roses (who amaze
our now and here with paradise)
forgetting if, remember yes
in time of all sweet things beyond
whatever mind may comprehend,
remember seek (forgetting find)
and in a mystery to be
(when time from time shall set us free)
forgetting me, remember me.

Gardens site--tis one of the wonderful places to visit in New York
City! Go here for
Bronx Gardens (daffodils and more)
And here for more flowers,solace and a joke.
Note from: the American Cancer Society: daffodils are a symbol of
spring, of hope and renewal (and hope for a cure).
