Dandelion Day


Everything I experience
plants a seed,

and I let time,
rain and sunshine,
fresh air

work their predictable
magic.

Some days
I am surprised
with overflowing,
abundant bouquets,

and some days,
I only see
fresh weeds,

and some days
there is no change,
nothing to harvest.

Judging by this
poem,

it’s a dandelion day.

  5. dandelions, though weeds, I've heard are quite tasty. that makes me believe not everything is as it seems...including this "dandy"-lion poem.

    very nicely planted in my opinion.
