Dandelion Dreams

I'm dreaming dandelion dreams, afloat on a sea of yellow. And I feel buoyant as a cloud, drifting on the fringes of sleep. Sol rises, his gold chariot igniting the horizon's edge. And slowly ascends, vanquishing the last vestiges of the night. Dawn's first glimmer of golden light dissolves ebony silhouettes. And arouses sleepy shadows, yawning and stretching into shape. Blue tints, ink, an absorbent sky, dappled with white cottony clouds. And Starlings squabble in the trees; as foxes forage far below. Sunrise heralds the birth of day; with a symphony of color. And like every true masterpiece, it's spectacularly unique.

This poem is a series of spectacularly beautiful lines strung together to create an awesome poem, Emile. I particularly love the "sleeping shadows yawning and stretching into shape" and the closing lines "like any true masterpiece it's spectacularly unique". A definite FAVE for me.

At last someone writes of the beauty of the dandelion as perhaps a child would think it while lying on the grass. Love, daver
