Displacing Dandelions

Listen to poem:
They stand tall with their yellow coat, Before they send their saintly seeds afloat… Spiritual soldiers in silence softly set sail, Through fields of dreams with a tenuous trail. Dancing and drifting until the wind has gone, Bringers of wishes decorating the dawn... Panoramic puffballs pollinating the view, Under heavenly skies of bewitching blue. The sacrificial soldiers will not return, As their love diminishes we will always yearn… Dandelions of the seraphical sacred sun, With beauty unleashed your will, be done.

OMG this is outstanding WW! You have elevated this little flower, often referred to as a bothersome weed, to a divine statis, something I tried to do, but not nearly as well. This gem is going into my Faves! I can see this in the top spot! : ) xxoo

I've never thought of dandelions as weeds. I've always liked them. Have a great day. Great poem.
