Left of the far right I picked only one from your hostess of green the solitary rogue, stranded as if it were planted there just for me in a sea of disarray overlooked by runners and daredevil caravans, I came upon you mid season where I blew wisps of white wings to the call of the north winds making a wish not only for me but for all of us yearning [This message has been edited by EmmaRose (05-02-2014 07:27 PM).] |

Emma, you are writing some mighty fine poetry these days. Your Muse is definitely there with you. This one is haunting, as most of your poetry is. When you made that wish not only for yourself but for everybody and dropped down and wrote "yearning," that gave it an oomph that made it very special. ~*~ Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? ~*~ |

Ah, dandelion wishes. It's been many a long year since I made one of those. Written with the ease and imagery of a muse in full flow. The altruistic nature of the wish adds poignancy to your poem. |

A very nice dandelion write...even at my age, I still am ever hopeful at least once during the dandelion season. A thought, perhaps close the 'yearning' up to the last stanza, I almost didn't see it. I added a dash after 'but for all of us', I think it gives the break that you are looking for, w/o using a actual line break. making a wish not only for me but for all of us— yearning |
