Dandelion

Praise for a Dandelion

Ginny Gray

Oh, that thick, impenetrable carpet
so impeccably cared for

so strong, well watered
so neat
nearby

somehow, a warm breeze wafted
the dandy dandelions

of our somewhat less gorgeous yard and
air drifted

a small cloud of seeds toward their sod

somehow, this one little seed broke through
this thick , thick carpet
so meticulously cared for
facetiously it grew there

ridiculous and fresh it sprouted

worst of all it bloomed happily!
