    This beautiful haiku reminded me of my daughter.

    She loves to do this with dandelions. Thank you for reminding me. Bravo!

    I really like this one. This is likely the best description I've seen of a dandelion when making a wish (in any form of poetry). Bravo!

    Best wishes in the contest!
