Good idea to use the dandelion in this context..I found some humor in this even though I am sure that was not meant..I think that it is because there is no telling where the seeds of a dream will land and what they will produce..Thanks for stopping by..Sara

Thank you Jan:) I have been researching the monoku form and trying to learn from the experts; totally different from a one-liner. Hugs // paul
