He died when I was a baby. I love the picture of him eating a dandelion.

What we class as a weed is in fact another natural beauty which comes along with several health benefits! In your case it serves to keep memories alive. Regards // paul

Thank you, my friend! Weed brings to mind several things. There is gentle and comforting beauty in a patch of dandelions.

You've captured the beauty as well as the practical side of the dandelion. Short-n-sweet!

This reminds me so much of when I was a child...blowing those dandelions. I think some people make and drink dandelion tea too. Nice little poem, Kim.

I've heard enjoy dandelion salad, never tried it and probably never would, but I guess with enough ranch dressing I could eat it. :) Nice one Kim.
