Dandelion

spilleronsheet

A dandelion 

belonging to this world 

bounded by no field 

known for its freedom 

dancing and singing with winds 

 

a dandelion 

belonging to this world 

swaying its way 

to far off places 

from farm fields in day 

to roads on cities

criticised for being swayed in youth 

 

a dandelion 

belonging to this world

blamed for its freedom 

nobody cared 

it dispelled it’s duty 

even when abandoned by all 

to do it’s duty connecting offshore with onshore 

Carrying on inheritance to all nooks

 

a dandelion 

belonging to this world 

some decided to be one 

Enjoyed being a dandelion 

while some yearned to be one

 

some born dandelion 

some evolved dandelion 

A bliss in disguise 

or curse to be one 

choosing duty to travel 

or enjoying to travel 

leaving its root to travel 

or simply swaying with wind to travel 

its not easy to be a dandelion…..

    I was swayed away with happiness like a dandelion reading your poem !!
    The last paragraph rocked !!

    This was a great line "Carrying on inheritance to all nooks" described the dandelion crisply.

            That’s true that makes us unique

              strange time of the year to read about Dandelions
              but then again, the Rose of all weeds
              has a habit of overcoming its obstacles...
              thanks for sharing, dear poet

              • spilleronsheet

                I guess it maybe the wrong time
                When it’s winter where shall we find it
                But then at times some souls like me wish to be a dandelion I guess
                Thank you dear poet

                  This is fantastic! I don’t know why people dislike dandelions and call them weeds. I love them and think they’re entitled to be called a ‘flower’. They have this extraordinary ability to transform themselves. How amazing is that?!

                  • spilleronsheet

                    They surely have
                    Whatever they may be flowers or weeds
                    I envy their freedom
                    But in their freedom, they don’t forget their duty
