I blew away the seed head on my dandelion flower so that it could blow away and possibly colonize the soil and make a new.
I found it on a particularly hot autumn day. I was walking around
enjoying my self. The sights, the smells, then my eyes found you.
I was reluctant at first to approach... but I decided to test my luck.
See it's a certain technique you have to have with these things
be too hard and well... you'll lose it all. It'll all go away.
Be too soft and you won't get anywhere and have your
time wasted and still risk losing it.
But with just the right amount of force you can have it
hold it right there in your hands.
Luckily for me I was always good with my
hands, so my prize was that I could claim you
just temporarily as my own.
I proceeded with my day, still with you by my side.
Finally, made it home.
I put you by the window in vase. I can be a bit
airy so it quickly came to my attention that every time the wind blew
I could lose you, I could have it all gone, taken away.
One day the window jammed and had to stay down,
I though to myself ok great, I won't lose you now
but then a new threat raised... the **** opening and
closing of the door.
I moved it to my room where there was
no sunlight, no wind, just space.
But oddly this thing just didn't like it there,
it was a true wildflower and had to have
it's way.
So I let it. Besides I went through this
much trouble so far.
Time went on and day by day the fascination of my
catch dwindled.
I could tell my time with it was coming to an end
so of course one last hooray was in order!
It was loads of fun, I relished in my victory.
I blew away the seed head on my dandelion flower so that it could blow away and possibly colonize the soil and make a new.
I found it on a particularly hot autumn day. I was walking around
enjoying my self. The sights, the smells, then my eyes found... and I bet you never knew that this poem was about you.
