Dandelions open up to the morning sun
a yellow silhouette
sheltering bugs~
Wondering on the secrets
you share within the blades of grass
Yellow dots of glory
trampled on by man~
You spend your time
with flights of bumblebees
that land upon you
Growing old to music
tickling the breeze~
Ah the dandelions
forever you will stay
a tranquil protrait that announces dawn
Golden sun tufted display~

I really feel that I have communed with the dandelion now! This is written is such a way as to put me down there with it, smelling and wondering at its display!

I have more respect for the yellow blooms than the white puffs--I have never tasted the wine, however... A great job with this one!!!

Sweet poem, I love dandelions too.
Most want to cut them away, but not me...
And after they are gone, that fluff, to wish on...
Sweet write, Blessings and hugs, ~ Ce -
Excellent! Lovely poem!
You have elevated the lowly dandelion with this lovely poem, Sis! Only you could do that! I love to see them in the grass..it's a shame they get mowed away and zapped with weed spray! I should live in the country where I could let everything grow to my heart's delight! Great poem, Sis! I really liked it!
Love Ya!

(perhaps you have one too many 'to's in this sentence: Growing old to to music?) -

I think this would work better as a longer piece, like add a couple more stanza's. The flow and form is good, I just think it would be an even better piece longer.
A lovely piece here.

peace be with you
love and light, for always

This is wonderful!! Very down to earth and calm. I enjoyed this very much. Great write!

very restful setting here. Yes I love the glow in the green grass when the blooms are full.....however my nose has another opinion.
Never had the wine yet, maybe I have to pick some of those weedy joys and make some.
