Laughing Dandelions

image: google


the dandelions are laughing in the field

i try to follow their laughter

i think i reach the source

alas! there isn't a particular place you reach

now i just laugh with all the flowers

playing with the wind and i sigh

life is about living the moment

  8. It crashed when I wrote my response... so here I go again... well said, I remember my Holy Father told me that I was a dandelion and that my life would be destined to avoid the mower...so run child, run. :-)

  10. such wise thoughts , indeed the dandelions just live for a few days and then fly away with the wind, but they never complaint, so much to learn from nature. Have a good day.
