Dandelion fluff
the stuff
of blood and tears and
being
misunderstood.
You are you-
yellow an green
but people don't see.
You just sway
in the breeze
til they throw you away
but you come back
again
In the wind
just a bit
of white stuff-
Dandelion fluff
and in the end
you always win.
I think we could learn
and thing or two
from you
