Notes About The Poem

Dandelion Wishes

Walk with me where wildflowers grow
among weeds and thistle in the meadow.
We'll share memories from years gone by.
Then, hold hands beneath a lavender sky,
and make a wish on dandelion wings of gold.
That's how they come true, so I've been told.

Duke Beaufort Date: 2/14/2025 8:17:00 AM Lin, I have to wonder if this relates to the Van Gogh painting. Of course there are no trees here. May all of your wishes come true! I think the world would be a much better place! Login to Reply Lin Lane Date: 2/14/2025 8:45:00 AM These lines were not influenced by Van Gogh... much too simple an interpretation on my part rather than something from out in left field. Thanks, Duke, and Happy Valentine's Day to you.

Susan Lawrence Date: 2/11/2025 5:29:00 PM Lin, This takes me back to being a young girl and picking dandelions with my younger sisters . We would wish and blow their fluff to the sky …. Then pick another and repeat ! Big hugs, Susan :) Login to Reply Lin Lane Date: 2/12/2025 5:56:00 AM My sister and I grew up in the country, so we did the same. Thank you very much, Susan.
