A  CHILD LAMENTS

THE PASSING OF TIME

don’t die daffodil

don’t die

I see you wilting

& I don’t know why

this is only the beginning of Spring

you should be flourishing

so please don’t fade

daffodil don’t fade

I watch you drooping

& I feel afraid

don’t want to say goodbye

to Spring

let this season last

eternally

daffodil why can’t you live forever

like me
