Analysis on the poem 'to daffodils' by robert herrick?

The Daffodil is one of the first flowers of spring. Often the daffodil will bloom while the winter is trying to hold on, making it a short lived flower. The Latin name for the Daffodil is Narcissus. Narcissus was a man who was in love with himself and stood over a pool of water staring at his reflection until he turned into a flower. The Daffodil represents unrequited love or deceitful hopes archaically, but modern day it has taken on other meanings. Generally it is a flower that is bad luck for a wedding. I don't know man.. that's all I got..
