Another Daffodil

Another daffodil bloomed today
And the window was open
Daffodils bowed
But nothing was broken.

When the sun moves away
Yellow evaporates
And the night has no promises to keep.

The daffodils came from us –
We are the ones with promises to keep.

We will be here until morning
With the colorless daffodils
Until nothing is broken again.
