Dandelion
By: Eve Estelle
Springtime arrives with a rekindled fire,
Breathe the air fresh like New Year's Day;
Feel the warmth of the sun's ire,
Awakening once more the flowers of May.
Birdsong echoes through a sky that shines blue,
Joyful voices, but they aren't you -
The grass glows a brilliant green,
And I smile when I see those Irish daisies,
The golden manes that grow to fly;
Descendants of summers I fear are by.
Oo, I like this one!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that, Ashley! ^^
DeleteAhh! So beautiful – as always. ^_^ I love dandelions!
ReplyDeleteI know right? People love to treat their lawns for dandelions, but I've never really understood why (unless they were taking over the lawn lol). I've always thought they were kind of a nice addition. Sure, not the prettiest little things ever, but what a nice contrast their yellow color makes to green grass! Thank you!
DeleteHaha, this made me laugh! :D My dad despises dandelions...and Mom likes them. ;)
DeleteLOL. :) To each his own! I do actually see why some don't like them, but you know what, it's less work when you don't mind them in your yard!
DeleteWhat a perfect poem for this time of year! I love it. :D
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was thinking! :D Glad you like it!
DeleteHI YOU'RE BACK! I'm very glad. Hope the break went well!

Hi! I am, and very glad to be back! :D Those three weeks went by fast, but I missed it around here. My break was nice and refreshing! :) Thank you.
DeleteIf one of your poem come up in my GCSE exam i would be SOOO happy! :)
ReplyDeleteAhaha, as would I!! That would be so great if that ever happened!
DeleteThis was so pretty! I love the line about New Year's Day- I do wish New Years was around springtime, it would make so much more sense than the middle of desolation and death (AKA winter).
ReplyDeleteYou know, it would. Even just the end of winter, when it's closer to spring than it is to the beginning of the cold seasons. But smack dab in the middle of all that frigid snow? lol. I'm not complaining, though - I personally love winter! Thank you Julia! :)
