Or: Machaut for the 21st century!*
Sometimes a walk can make your eyes open up to all the different things Nature has to offer, and sometimes your eyes gets constantly snagged on one thing. Such was the case on a walk up to Blebo. Beautiful day, Spring getting her glad rags on, and all I could see were daffodils!
I do have to point out, though, it's not like there weren't plenty to see!
Plenty of beautiful varieties, too!
I might even learn their names for next year's post. Because you know there will be one, don't you?!!
*(The Mirror of Narcissus is a compendium of songs written by a medieval poet and composer called Guillaume de Machaut in the early fourteenth century. Written in the courtly style it truly was a reflection (sorrynotsorry) of the lover as artist/artist as lover ideal so prevalent in the European courts of the time. Narcissus is also the name given to a genus of spring bulbs flowers that include the daffodil... But you knew that already!)
