Tiger Lily and Dandelion








A Tiger Lily is like a wild animal;
























ferocious in sight,







































elegant in action
A Dandelion is like a tsunami;




























amazing and intriguing,










but unwanted by everyone
A Tiger Lily is the movement of a master;






















graceful, all-knowing, secure
A Dandelion is the movement of an apprentice;





















skilled, yet unsure, on a leash
A Tiger Lily is the sound of a classical piece;
























sweet, sleep-lulling, beautiful
A Dandelion is the sound of rock;



























not fully mastered, loud, awakening
A Tiger Lily is the smell of a fresh orange;

























a citrus feel that brightens your day
A Dandelion is the smell of fresh wood;


























an acquired taste to most
A Tiger Lily has petals like a princess;
























adored by everyone,





























beautiful and proud
A Dandelion has petals like a peasant;






















quietly wonderful,































but mostly unnoticed
A Tiger Lily breathes beauty and adoration






















A Dandelion breathes childhood wonder
A Tiger Lily grows up to be nothing but a simple flower
A Dandelion grows up to be a wish for any lucky child that needs it
