I am the breath you exhale That sends dandelion seeds asail. To you, a momentary pleasure, While it gives my life new measure. You've plucked me from home, Blew me into the unknown. I might be a seed under your boot, My existence could seem moot. But next summer, when you've lost incentive In momentary pleasures, no longer attentive, I'll be in full bloom. Pick me up, I'll rebound again soon.
