It is my pleasure to read your poem, "The Snowflake and the Daffodil."
Message/Theme: A beautiful poem for your beautiful daughter. What a sad day, remembering the chill of April, a leftover snowflake, and a daffodil. I'm so sorry this happened! We all lose loved ones, so I can relate to how certain items can bring all the memories back/
Narrative/Style: The narrative is well told, showing your readers how you all cope, and what items make you remember.
The style is emotional, experience, and a tribute.
Form/Flow: The form is four 4-line stanzas with aabb rhyming.
The flow follows the author's thoughts as she remembers.
Tone: The tone of the author is sentimental, straightforward, and passionate.
Mood: I feel the mood is somber, sorrowful, and emotional.
Imagery/Pace: The imagery is "The daffodils were peeking through amid the swirls of white,
Like little drops of sunshine after the darkest night.

FAVORITE LINE:
Grief hangs around like clinging fog and never leaves for long,
It pops up unexpectedly in lyrics of a song,
You think you're managing quite well amid the talk and laughs,
Then suddenly it jumps out from a box of photographs.
JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION:
What a beautiful poem for your daughter. My heart goes out to you as I read this poem. 'May she rest in peace.'
