Her Midnight Dandelion

it flew

tipping dewed valleys 
gleeful melodies to each wandering soul
aloof in an eloquent crescents daring fold
drifting remedies reminiscing
star gazed idyllic desires
twinkling a picturesque uplifting in 
pleasant powdered gleaming faith
petals drenched in tapestries
twisting laced lavender scented dreams 
stroking desolate pavements
solely on hushed mumbled commands
of a wind carried dimmed lantern

it flew

"Of a wind carried dimmed lantern" symbolizes the dream of a wisher whispered to a dandelion; 'dimmed' because it's not always visible to others, akin to a faint light whose likelihood of realization is uncertain, often seeming unattainable due to circumstances. hope this is insightful enough, tyvm for the feedback!!

lool thank yous Tom. To state it simply, this poem portrays the purposeful journey of a dandelion bud carrying the ebullient hopes and wishes of a person who blew a wish, contrasting with the harsh, demanding reality constantly trying to put us down. (in my perspective) Wishing on a dandelion bud makes space for clutched on hopes and dreams in a sanguine spirit.. symbolizing a belief that things will eventually work out for the better-whether or not your most desired wish will come true.
