WW: White Daffodil in Spring Rain

White Daffodil Photo

Happy Birthday Daffodil Flower Photo

"Is the spring coming?" he said. "What is it like?"
"It is the sun shining on the rain and the rain falling on the sunshine..."
 - Excerpt from The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

I've been watching my mom's peach and white daffodils like a hawk, and they bloomed just a few days after the first yellow daffodils of the season. Yesterday's spring rain couldn't keep me away from photographing them for her birthday.

    Very Pretty Daffodils. All these annoying April Showers are supposed to bring May Flowers, in the meanwhile I looked like a drowned rat in the rain on my birthday! I wish Spring was finally here!

    Your white daffodil makes me think its a fairy's dress ballooning out, as she drifts to the ground so that she can tend to the garden flowers. Very beautiful!
