Come-a-Day
Dandelion clocks dancing on breezes
cuckoo spit, pollen, tickles, and sneezes
In the shallows, the petals of fallen
wild flowers
Cast shadows and tease
those sucked in by warm thermals
Yes there in the dapple where the current
bites deepest
Where once there was laughter
and of course, happy ever afters …
Spied only by sprites and by nymphs and by
dragonflies
That’s where he knows
he shall lay with thee some come-a-day …
