Daffodils in the Rain

Their yellow and white
(and some orange)
are muted
on this wet morning.
Occasionally
one of the daffodils
nods a little,
as a raindrop
taps its head,
like a teacher saying,
“Wake up, sleepyhead.
Just because
the sun isn’t shining
doesn’t mean the world
isn’t beautiful.
It’s lovely in a different way.
Listen to
the melodious music
of us raindrops.”
