The Sweetness

There’s some honey, so you can take they said There’s some sugar, you might enjoy they say But then you might not enjoy it by the end. Within the sweetness of the word, There’s the sweetness of the soul But the bittersweet taste in this mouth isn’t a foul Cause this taste they said I might enjoy then, I certainly don’t do now. There’s the sweetness that rests upon this body, The sweetness streaming by the currents, Swirling and twisting in miraculous ways, Just cascading into another future But then while forming now the present to the future. This transformation brings great changes with it, And now changing the way the dandelion dances with the wind Creates a mess, a honed mess But now the dandelion is dying. Who would take care of the dandelion? The now sweet dandelion, That has discovered that ain't it all be sweetness, Now the dandelion dances with the wind, evades that much sweetness and delights in the sun. Anna~
