Melancholy

I went to the lake,

to our spot.

there were daffodils there.

i smiled at that, then cried a little.

you want to hear something funny?

they scare me.

they are so, so yellow.

they scream caution.

I almost keep walking,

but the sun is out, and I am here.

and you are here.

daffodils are many things.

but they are not witnesses.

so I'll stay.

for a while.

A simple poem.

they screamed caution."

What Rachna and Matt said.

"daffodils are many things.
but they are not witnesses." **
