Question: Would you care to comment on a botanical poem!?
Dandelions
by C!.S!. Scotkin


Dandelions
should have been created
less common
Sol’s miniature portrait
!.
always to be pulled
up and tossed away
as having no worth
or beauty!.

Raucus
unabashed yellow
giving interest to
flat green lawns…

why does arrogance
think
common things
are weeds!?

Last stanza -- that's the way to do it!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Did you ever take a dandelion stem and curl it with the tip of your tongue!?
Have you ever run with a handful of them gone to seed in a perfect cirlcle of parachutes to see them fly!?
Innocent memories!.!. brought back to me

I never did that dandelion wine try!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Excellent poem and an excellent question!
I personally think a grassy field full of dandelions is beautiful!

*Cheers to all of my fellow dandelions!Www@QuestionHome@Com

There is nothing prettier in the spring than a field blanketed in yellow!.
Rub a dandelion under you chin to see if you are in love!. You are if you chin turns yellow!. Remember that one!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I start my life as one small seed,
I grow and flower, yes indeed!.
Pulled up by roots, I am a weed!.
