Daffodil is the symbol of Spring

[mjbou]

Well, it's already the end of Spring, at the same time the beginng of the Summer.

It's almost an half of the year since I moved to Vancouver from Seoul.

Unexpectedly it was so cold that I coud'nt go out anywhere with so heavy snow.

Now, it's getting warm day by day, mamy flowers bloom rapidly spread around me.

Yesterday, I came here to join the excercise class, in the name of "Keep Well".

Anyone can join with no reservation, no qualification, even no fee.

We have taken various types of movement, holding a simple equipment. like rubber band and square sponge for an hour.

It's difficult for my age and demanding to me.

But after the class, I feel like successful as if I made something great one by myself.

On my way home, the sky looks much bluer to be cracked, the sky  was higher than used to be,

the wind smelled worm and sweet.

In the Spring, Thie're many kinds of flowers gently blowing in the breeze, as if they were dancing passionatly.

This atmosphere remind me of the poem "Senes Daffodils" witten by Wordsworth.

The beglinning of it is:     "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud"

The Daffodils
                            William Wordsworth(1770-1850)

I wondered lonly as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils,
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.  

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stetch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance
Tossing their heads in prightly dance.

The waves beside them danced: but they
Out-ded the sparkling waves in glee:--
A Poet could not but be gay 
In such a jocund company!
Igazed-- and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought;

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or n penive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
QAnd then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
                                     

I think the daffodil is a typica flower of Spring in Englad, Canada.

Now a days I am restful and happy with every thing around me especially this class

and the precious teacher! Thank you!

나는 골짜기와 산 위를 높이 떠도는 

구름처럼 외로이 헤매었네

그러다 문득 한 무리의 꽃을 보았네

수많은 황금빛 수선화를 

수선화는 호숫가 옆 나무 아래서

미풍에 흔들거리며 춤을 추고 있네

그들은 은하수에서 반짝거리는 

별들처럼 끊임없이 이어져있네

그들은 호숫가를 따라 돌며
