I see you all have been having
a dandelion yawn of a time
please excuse my absence class
what I did was recline
I yawned and yawned until I thought I would lose my head
instead I laid me down on soft down
to take a nap I said...
I dreamed an awful dream while out
caught knee deep in snow
and water rushing everywhere
while having no place to go
Awoke from my deep repose
by John Gibson's voice
I stepped inside the Dragonflies' Lair
and found it full of folks
posting facts of the properties of dandelion's worth
with instructions to print this page
I took a little peek at it to read in great awe,
the redeeming qualities of the dandelion
and why I should put down the hoe
and not disturb they healing roots
while they fill my nose with fur.
Ode, to the dandelion, is the word today
mingled with the Bells of Blue by a country lane
with Texas Bluebonnets holding forth
in colorful array
juxtaposed by the humble dandelion
a natural history lesson all in a day.
