Dandelion Wine

Dandelion Wine When I got up this morning I knew something was wrong Went to the bathroom but not to sing a song Looked in the mirror, what a sight to see Growing out the left side of my head dandelion seeds! When I went to bed my eyes were blue My hair was black, black as a black patent shoe And dandelion wine was on my mind Oh my I wish I’d never had dandelion wine Growing out the left side of my head dandelion seeds! When I looked in the mirror dandelion seeds was Growing out the left side of my head for all to see Oh my I wish I’d never had dandelion wine Growing out the left side of my head dandelion seeds! Finally got rid of the wine and the seeds With God's help Down on my knees Though I'm much older now I'm looking better now without the seeds.

Well this sure is hysterical, Glenna. I'd scream if I saw dandelion seeds growing out of my head. For me, it might be a grape vine as I do enjoy a glass once in a while. Wishing you success in John's contest! Best wishes, Carolyn
