Early, Tiny Twins

I look forward to their arrival every spring. They appear weeks earlier than any of my other daffodils.

Those tiny golden twins. Like little suns on stems.

These are the bulbs I share more than any other, ‘Tete-a-tete’ miniature narcissus.

They were given to me by my mother in a pot many years ago. My children were small. My garden was new and neglected.

Yesterday, I told Mama about her Tete-a-tetes blooming, like little baskets of gold, all over my yard, her yard and my sister’s yard. She smiled.

If I were to choose only one daffodil, which would be difficult,

it would be these early, tiny twins.
