Roots and Dandelion Dreams: A Mother's Heart - Daniel Henry Rodgers Roots and Dandelion Dreams: A Mother's Heart - Daniel Henry Rodgers At dawn's first blush, milkweed pods, burst with a sigh, A feathery shower of, silk sending secrets... on the wind's soft cry. Yesterday they wore a crown of pink Today they are set free; like dandelion dreams floating on the vast sea a thousand wishes taking flight. I see you spinning gracefully on dandelion fluff. each strand like a glowing thread forming a halo. Your laughter flows like a babbling brook over stones. while your tears resemble mist clinging to ferns in the whisping breeze. As twilight falls and fireflies twinkle like scattered stars, a new constellation is born.— a flickering dance in the dimming light as transient, as a summer evening. In your eyes wild irises bloom reflecting the evening sky as they search for their fragrance. Amidst meadowlarks songs welcoming the dawn in morn. my heart remains intertwined with yours like a nurturing vine that delves into the soil forever connected to you. You write the poetry of life moments full of freedom. Like a ballet of butterflies a child experiencing wonder, both wild and free. No need, for preaching! just the melody of the wind whispering through the pine trees. A communication, a connection that binds eternally. With patience engraved in the face of mountains I stand as a protector. a sanctuary in this forests intricate beauty. While shadows dance in a transient vanishing performance My love stands firm like a redwood sentinel enduring all challenges. In the settling of dusk, where fireflies sparkle, My presence is like a meadow where bluebirds dream. For you, my child, are a hawk, on the wind's caress. Soaring on thermals, a spirit, etched upon your face. My heart, a beacon's steady fire, guiding, through the unknown, In this life's, choreography, bathed in your, boundless exploration. Mother Sheltering, strong Branches rustle tales Roots grip the earth deep Child
