On a golden, sunlit day
I bought daffodils on a cornerstand in the big city.
I had no wish to buy flowers in the weight of traffic,
only to rest with my face lifted in a wide field.
The sky is a canvas of calm blue.
The grass, a field of deep, lush green
You cannot know how free it feels—
how brimming the world is,
how utterly at peace.

I drifted through the field, light as a cloud,
And now I stand among endless blooms—
A life so radiant, so beautiful.
