Heart’s desire

by cutcaster.com

Dandelion unkempt head…
wouldn’t it be cruel
to follow its ghastly
thoughts…

though…

fragile, the parachutes
landed on fallow
soil…
would it be  a floret,
anticipated
by heart…

    Yes, aren't those dandelion parachutes something? Amazing how far they can carry a seed.

    I had not thought of them as little parachutes--but it is a wonderful description! And low the thought of a seed landing to begin.

    Nature sure is inventive in ensuring the propagation of the species. As a child I was responsible for distributing many weeds in the farmer's paddocks.

    When it comes to the heart it will always land in a nice way though sometimes with little bumps! Nicely humbird!

    The suggestive image are beautiful. The seeds of parachutes land on fallow soil to make it fertile for the heart to bloom. a lovely poem.

    The image is perfect. The writing is lovely. Interesting that dandelions are so popular lately. People must be missing the summer.
