Daffodils

"Long yellow sunlight fills

The cool secluded room

Sweet and set in order –

And again

The insistent sweet perfume

And the impressions it preserves

Irritate the imagination

Or the nerves."

- Daffodils by T. S. Eliot from Inventions of the March Hare: Poems 1909-1917  edited by Christopher Ricks, New York, Harcourt  Brace & Company: 1996.
