Timothy Mcguire Poet Free verse

Dandelion Wishes

Little Irish dasies
Puffballs
A child's delight 
Dandelion wishes
Colors of the sun and the moon
Strong roots
All winter long
Lionstooth leaves
Green quickly
With the coming of spring
Bold florets of yellow
Open to the morning sun
Close to sleep at night
Puffballs
Monet's delight
Some greens 
Some wine
Strong roots
All summer long

Allen Beilschmidt Sr. April 6, 2019 at 11:18 PM Great detail written beautifully. Who decides what is or isn't a weed. I've always wondered. Timothy Mcguire April 7, 2019 at 3:34 PM If you get a chance look up the dandeline on wikipedia facinating

Tom Cunningham April 6, 2019 at 3:28 PM Great tribute to the humble dandelion. I thing they are a bright looking flower that adds colour, don't know why they're classed as weeds. Good luck. Tom. Timothy Mcguire April 6, 2019 at 4:35 PM Thanks Tom. Despised by many people in this country who spend a lot of money to buy weed killer to get rid of them. If you get a chance read about the plant in Wikipedia. Amazing
