Notes About The Poem

Oh, Dandelion

Oh, dandelion
  Your blossom of gold endures
        Warmth to a cold day

      The strength of sunlight
   Is sometimes diminished by
  Grey clouds that drape Earth...

        With a soiled blanket
       Of piercing melancholy
      Yet you glow, undimmed

      Would you make my wish
     come true after I blow you...
        to the passing breeze?
