Thursday Poem

Someone, Anonymous

Someone, anonymous, brought me
daffodils, slogged up through
snow and mud on foot—impossible
by car—to bring me these
left on the table in a little vase,
a special one, they took the trouble
to pull down from the highest shelf.

Six daffodils, with feathered greens.
Someone, anonymous, knows
I grieve.
