♥ And Such A Love Was Never Seen ♥

My Love is neither young nor old,
Not fiery-hot nor frozen-cold,
But fresh and fair as springing briar
Blooming the fruit of love’s desire;
Not snowy white nor rosy red,
But fair enough for shepherd’s bed;
And such a love was never seen
On hill or dale or country-green.

- Robert Jones (1601)

Daffodil’s Return

What matter if the sun be lost?
What matter though the sky be gray?
There's joy enough about the house,
For Daffodil comes home to-day.
