The Joy of Dandelions




Fallen stars 'tween emerald grass
dancing in rhythm to a gentle breeze
sun kissed golden drops of honey
growing wild and free with such ease

Such splendor to be found in the field
treasured gems dipped in golden hue
spread freely through thousands of wishes
not quite dry from the morning dew

In the face of nature's majesty
sweet laughter echoes on sunny days
bouncing off nature's lap of beauty
as she graces us in her charming ways

Ephemeral flower in disguise
admired for its whimsical allure
so precious, playful and witty
unassuming and oh, so demure

Springtime flower of life and purpose
scatters silently its seeds in the breeze
some become playful children's wishes
others become future havens to bees
