In the yellow of eve, I toss my dream like feathered lint, a roulette spinning along puffy breath of air on flight-- tiny as wisps curled upon moon’s glint: Golden ruffles pivot to open its seeds as twinkles bid me carefree walk… its ride through sky’s labyrinth fascinates mirroring my enchanted wish: Pixie nymph quickens blushed drift every huff, heave , an elusive caprice vanishing within quaking blows; that now, my dandelion yearnings are strewn among rune of stars, until… 04.17.2019 Dandelion Contest of Line Gauthier

Hello Nette, the dandelion perks up a dull lawn. The Italians people make wine from the leaves of the weed, and put the leaves in salads. So very useful. Have a nice evening my friend.

Ahh!!! Reads like a good contender for the contest. Way to go. There are so many dandelion flowers everywhere this spring so if they don't get mown down them we will see some of those seed pods ready for the picking. Thanks for stopping by ...Sara

The stages of a dandelion in words, always so well written nette. Many call them weeds but their bright colours brighten the landscape. Good luck. Tom.
