Fair daffadils, we weep to see
You haste away so soone;
As yet the early-rising sun
Has not attained its noone.
We have short time to stay as you,
We have as short a spring;
As quick a growth to meet decay
As you or anything."

You haste away so soon
I just could not resist recording the beauty of my Jasmine plant that bloomed so profusely today. If only I could record its fragrance too. Unfortunately the flowers survive only for 2 days.
