They buried me in the ground and even though it was claustrophobic, I did not scream. I had to be patient. Wait a while longer.

I finally started escaping my earthen prison. I sprouted green limbs and danced in the sun.

And then one perfect day, I was finally crowned in wonderfully bright yellow.

'Mum! Come! There's a daffodil in the garden,' a little voice said.

And I was happy.
