The lowly Dandelion is so much more than a weed. It had medicinal properties and makes a fine tea as well. I enjoyed your fantastic imagery in this fabulous haiku JCB. Congratulations on your wonderful POTW honor! Blessings, Connie xxoo

Some say a *Dandelion* is a weed. To me, it is a flower. Wishes floating through the breeze. (star-like seeds) Yes, I completely agree. This is beautiful in so many amazing ways. Congratulations JCB, on Poem of the Week. :) Brandy

I agree with you Nicole, it is a flower emanating so much loveliness. I myself witnessed this late spring how star-like seeds disperse and float in the air. I have taken a video but I can only upload a picture.
