Dandelion Wishes Standing here, waiting, watching the road until I don’t see colors anymore and it is before again, or maybe after or maybe it doesn’t matter. All the colors are scattered there behind, out in the meadow where two lovers search for flowers among the fallen leaves and find each other, where the sweetest gift may still be given though ungiven, received though unreceived, and maybe it doesn’t matter anywhere but here. See their bright steps play along the leafpath, coming or maybe going, looking for fallen moments among the leaves and flowers, casting their dandelion wishes just for moments, always moments, even the tiny pause, almost imagined, just there between the parting and departing, then down this road they seem to dissolve, still carrying their frail as feather wishes off into the colorless of time alone, of waiting, watching the road while bare leaves tumble down amid the flowers. |

coming or maybe going, looking for fallen moments among the leaves and flowers, casting their dandelion wishes just for moments, always moments, even the tiny pause, almost imagined, just there between the parting and departing, Well, well, look at you! Lovely poem, James_A~ |

Salutations! If you take a "buttercup" flower and put it on your window sill in a tiny recepticle with a bit of water...after drying that way for about 1-2 weeks, it turns into the most beautiful "make a wish" flower! The dandelion will magically appear. This poem made me remember that small miracle my boys discovered. Enjoyed! McLean |
