Dispersed and drifting
Animating Breeze
No one to guide you
Do just as you please
Each little movement
Lost in the sky
Invisible planting
Of seeds, one cant buy
New plants, new cycle
Despair is unknown
Allows your purpose
No judgement here shown
Carefree acceptance
Each seed is thus grown...
I took this photo and as luck would have it literally the next day I was reading this poem written by Nicki Cassimatis from her collection "The Cake Shop and other Morsels". I married them up and with her permission I am reproducing it here, a real favourite verse, capturing the essence of the dandelion. Nicki runs free workshops on "Poetry for Wellbeing and Joy" and the next one is at Albany Creek Library on the 5th of November - no fireworks- just soothing words.
