a dandelion day

"If dandelions were hard to grow, they would be most welcome on any lawn"

My favorite flower in the entire world is a dandelion. Yes, ok it's really just a weed, but still. Even when I was little, the thought of having a wish only a breath away enthralled me. Today, though I'm still tempted to make a wish, and infect my neighbors' lawns, I also like to watch a gentle breeze carry away a few seeds. The seeds wafting through the air, dancing though the breeze, and possibly swirling a few loop-de-loops is a sight I never tire of seeing. As summer nears, and I begin to see the balls of white puff popping up like the weeds they are, I begin to feel the temptation to blow wishes to my heart's content. Though if my neighbors catch me I'll probably get some flack for it, I'll most likely end up sneaking a few in. Hey, a girl's gotta live a little, right?

  1. Oh, I love dandelions! Blowing them is so much fun, till your parents tell you to stop. I always tell everyone who call them weeds, that they are wildflowers.
