Dandelion dreams wisped from The lips of summers past, Lips tasted And gilded became the cage, So to, ushered, My sense of belonging. I tried to move on, An couldn’t And she knew it; She knew that I couldn’t The moment – I’d fallen upon her lap As she grabbed one more Dandelion And took one more breath And blew the dead petals Whilst making the wind somehow Dance, and I, The fool once more – In love and unable to flee.

Summer's Monarch
Dandelion dreams wisped from The lips of summers past, Lips tasted And gilded became the cage, So to, ushered, My sense of belonging. I tried to move on, An couldn’t And she knew it; She knew that I couldn’t The moment – I’d fallen upon her lap As she grabbed one more Dandelion And took one more breath And blew the dead petals Whilst making the wind somehow Dance, and I, The fool once more – In love and unable to flee.
She asked me to "stay in her bowl," and I did; I'm still there and I'm a-o-k with that.
