A NEED TO KNOW
A vase of daffodils stands on my desk
Not dancing to the noble wordsworths tune
But just as beautiful a scene.
The vase is Moorcroft,collectable by name.
Though I would wager others worth the same,
Functional and pretty in design but that’s the word
A thing designed and coveted by us.
Now take the daffodil,more beautiful
A thing,more delicate,delightful in my sight
Than any vase or engineered thing
My question is from whence its beauty came ?
