Summer's Fleeting Angels

Proud dandelions
Don their soft, cotton halos.
Warm winds defrock them.


I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires. -Khalil Gibran

Thanks, Nightshade.

I wrote a bunch of these while I was in a contemplative mood.

More, soon!

Hi, TL.

Thanks for saying so, because I am a firm believer that with Haikus, the title is almost as important as the poem.

Every. Word. Counts.
