First Bloom

There was a tiny daffodil

Sitting in the lawn

All alone and wonderful

Beaming from the sun

The tiny flower sat there

So bright and yet carefree

It was so proud and tall

And was as happy as could be

The little flower wondered

Where all the other flowers were

And looked around to see

If they were over by the tree

It didnt see a single bloom

And sat there in amazement

At how this could ever be

To be alone and feeling great

As if its life were free

There are times I feel the same way

As that tiny little flower

But my life is richer every day

And really even by the hour

I'm not sure if its possible

To have a life that has no gloom

But having all of you as friends

Makes me a flower in full bloom
