Whish it......!!!!

I dreamed one night that I was a little seed A little future seed, a sprout to a better world A mother with many children at least one hundred and four ~ It was a virgin birth We were all quite alike brown small shoes and a small parasol of hair Our mother was so beautiful in her youth a big beautiful yellow smile who gave hope for a new spring She had chosen a garden with lots of sunshine A flower that makes the impossible possible where other flowers cannot bear ~ A happy childhood we had The time had come We were ready to leave our home In the wind music up against the light of heavenly mystery With the help of the wind we began a long journey ~ I was a dandelion child and I carried the title with pride Although this was a strange dream When spring comes ~ look for me in your garden 19.02.2019 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved For the contest : I Dreamed a Dream Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Silent One 2nd place in the contest And : Gardens Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Chantelle Anne Cooke 3nd place in the contest

"The time had come We were ready to leave our home In the wind music up against the light of heavenly mystery" love the coming of age and the preordained flight that we all must take

Yours is my favorite in this contest Anne-Lise. It was so heartwarming how you celebrated the humble dandelion it almost made me tear up. It took me right back to the hilsides of Bavaria in spring where they cover the land in gold. This beauty is going into my faves my friend! I love it! Congratulations! xxoo
