Such a testament to life!
are these dandelions, in the spring
and it seems so unfair!
they don’t know their clorophyll mothers ;-)
but only dream of wind and sky
and dampened earth enfolding
and the trickling warmth of sunlight
through fundument below
then a sudden urge to shoulder through
the cracks, into the wild blue
gold manes flaming, dreams afire
to celebrate the Mother
festoon her skirts with sunshine
burst
and dance beneath the stars
and this I know through many seasons
the wonder of her warm heart beating
her circling arms and circling wagons
and stories ‘round the fire
I know the succor of her love
the nourishment unbounded
and know that I am ever home
wherever she has wandered ...
I love you MOM!

dropping by to give a
biig hug!
When I was a child, we captured the sunshine by picking dandelion blossoms to smear on our lips: we called it 'making butter.' Two little girls, hand in hand, long ago across the short-grass prairie. Thank you, darling Mary.
and a belated thank you all for your kind comments. I am not an attentive host, it seems - letting this long lazy river slide on by like there is nothing more important than the slap slap slap of water on my hull, this thrum of insects and occasional splash of frogs bidding for their evening meal….
