I'll Gather Daffodils

About the Book

I'll Gather Daffodils is a touching collection of original poems celebrating God's wondrous creation, from the love of family and warmth of friends to the earth's awe-inspiring nature and changing seasons. From Kay Hoffman's own life experience comes this outpouring of praises and tributes. Surrounded by the picturesque mountains and farmlands of Western Pennsylvania, and by the love she shares with family and friends, Kay has put into words what many others feel but are unable to express.

Many poems in this book were inspired by small comforts and delights from God. At the lowest points in her life, Kay found that God lifted her spirit through poetry. In sharing these now, it is her desire that others may be comforted and cheered as they contemplate the birth of a child, the laughter of children, the magic of Christmas, the magnificent and ever-changing world we live in.

It is in quiet times that God ministers to us through prayer and poems of praise. Let these poems open your awareness to the gifts God has blessed us with.
