Dandelion Plucking Tool

I am a bright yellow blossom
I spread beauty across the lawn
But, adults consider me a weed
And children play games
Wanting to pop off my head!
I am a Dandelion and deserve respect
I am prettier than muddy snow!
When I turn soft delicate white,
People shake me in the wind!
Do they realize my seeds spread more?
Now here comes a Dandelion plucking tool
                Oh, My!

Another fun personification. I am guilty of spreading the love I'm afraid. I just can't help but blow the seeds all over the place. Good luck with this entry Heidi!
