Dandelion
emotions watching ever shiny sun,
dream
of catching that can’t be caught, but only seen and felt,
the
ardour warmth from far soothes their embrace, deliquescing cold wave.
Dandelions
whisper to themselves of radiating sunrays,
flickering,
hovering, dancing as they spread over them,
blooms
of dandelions gazing at the sun, to taste its essence.
Bright
morning sunshine love dangling above, peeping coyly,
heaven
rejoices, clouds sing, for they have their love of life,
dandelion
seeds carrying their hearts, fly far to touch the sun.

A beautiful form and what a lovely metaphysical metaphor, Vandana.
I still can't resist making a wish. Beautiful
How perfectly you weaved the dandelion into the three stanzas. You always come with lots of new offerings for which one can try out. Thanks for sharing Vandana!
