Daffodils are one of the first flowers to bloom in spring. Their cheery yellow petals are a welcome sight after a long winter. For kids, daffodils can be a source of inspiration for poems and art projects. Here are some daffodil poems and art ideas to get your kids started.
Daffodils are Blooming
Daffodils are blooming
and the world is in bloom
Nature is on display
in all its glory
A colourful carpet spread
underneath the feet
of the daffodil.
Daffodil
Daffodil
Yellow, jolly and gay
Smiles at me from under the May Day sun
A harbinger of spring that is just begun
Bringing with it hope of a new day
A joy to behold in the fresh young springtime
Symbol of rebirth and new beginnings.
Daffodil, daffodil
Daffodil, daffodil,
the prettiest flower in the spring.
You are so yellow and pure,
such a delight to look at.
Your petals are so soft,
your fragrance is so sweet.
The Sight of Daffodils
I love the sight of daffodils
Yellow and orange against the green
They remind me of the Springtime
When all things are new once again
I can’t wait to see them in my garden
Landing like sunny butterflies
Bringing hope that Winter is ending
And Summer is on its way.
Daffodils are Blooming
Daffodils are blooming
and the smell of spring is in the air.
The sun is shining and the sky is blue.
The daffodils are a beautiful sight.
They are a symbol of new beginnings.
They make me feel happy and alive.
I can’t help but smile when I see them.
The Eternal Daffodils
The eternal daffodils
We see them in the spring
They bring us happiness
And remind us of new beginnings.
What a Beautiful Sight
Daffodils, daffodils
What a beautiful sight
As the yellow and white
Blossom in the light
The fragrance in the air
Is such a delight
Cheerful Display
So early in the year.
You Make Everything Seem Just a Little Brighter
Is there anything as cheerful as a field of daffodils,
Niagara of yellow spilling out all over the place?
Marching in step with the sun, they bring such happiness,
Like a smile from Heaven, a sign that Spring is here.
Daffodils, you make everything seem just a little brighter,
Even on the grimmest of days, your sunny presence is felt.
Nature’s Message That Spring is Here
Daffodils blooming by the side of the road
Cheerful yellow faces in the April breeze
Their happy fragrance a joy to behold
March slowly giving way to April’s hope
Nature’s message that spring is here
Budding trees, burgeoning flowers
All sing of new beginnings.
Emerging from the Soil
Daffodils emerging from the soil
Cheerful yellow petals in the sun
Fresh and new, they stand out in the field
A sign of spring, a signal to be happy
Their fragrance fills the air
Bringing joy to all who smell them
Long may they stay, to bring happiness
These symbols of rebirth.
Each Spring You Grace Us With Your Presence
Daffodils, you are so lovely
Each Spring you grace us with your presence
Your golden trumpets always announce
The arrival of a new season
We can’t help but smile when we see you
Especially when your petals are wet
From a recent spring shower
Your beauty is unsurpassed by any other flower.
Daffodils Awaken In The Morning
Daffodils awaken in the morning
As the sun starts to peek
They open up their petals to the world
Sharing their beauty with everyone they see
They are a symbol of hope
And remind us that spring is on its way.
Everyone Loves a Daffodil
Daffodils, daffodils
Bringing happiness wherever they go
Their smile is as bright as the sun
Yellow and orange, their petals so bright
They make everyone smile with just their sight
These flowers bring nothing but joy
Even when the days are filled with sorrow
Everyone loves a daffodil.
Daffodil Bulbs Are Poisonous
Daffodil bulbs are poisonous,
Causing a stomach upset if eaten.
So don’t chew on them, or eat them,
Or you’ll be feeling quite sick.
Do Daffodils Grow Back Every Year
Yes, daffodils grow back every year.
You can mark their return
By the fresh green spears
That poke through the melting snow.
Their cheerful yellow blooms
Let you know that spring is here,
Bringing new life to the earth.
How Long Do Daffodils Last?
The daffodils last for weeks,
Bringing color to the lawn;
Catching the eye as they sway
In the early morning sun.
Each day they are a little different,
With new buds just starting to show;
Soon they will be at their peak,
An explosion of yellow and white.
But even when they start to fade,
They remain a cheerful sight;
And we can’t help but smile
At the sight of daffodils in bloom.
Golden Daffodils
Golden daffodils so bright and gay,
Smiling in the morning sun.
They bring a touch of springtime to our day,
A sign that winter’s done.
The world is new again with their arrival,
A fresh start for each and every one.
We can’t help but smile when we see them swaying,
In the breeze, so proudly on display.
A Hardy Perennial
Daffodils are a hardy perennial
That will come back again and again
They are always cheerful and bright
And add a touch of color to any scene.
Bright Yellow Trumpets
Daffodils,
bright yellow trumpets
speaking of spring
and rebirth
bidding us to come and see
what new life has sprung.
Don’t Eat Daffodil Bulbs
Don’t eat daffodil bulbs,
they’ll make you sick,
I learned the hard way,
now I’m warning you.
You’ll get a tummy ache,
and feel like you’re going to die,
just don’t eat the bulbs,
and you’ll be fine.
