Dandilions

A poem of devotion !

Dandelions

Some prefer and pick a rose,
to share in loves delight
Red is the favoured colour, 
for cupid's arrow to take flight

Others choose the daffodil, 
majestic in vibrant yellow
Sure to make a lady smile, 
when offered by a handsome fellow

I prefer to pick dandelions, 
perhaps, a peculiar habit?
As not only do I think they're beautiful,
so does my adored, pet bunny rabbit!

Tom,
"Dandelions" what a nice little story with lovely rhyme this was. I felt thankful for all the flowers that have been such a pleasure to enjoy, dandelions included. Your pet bunny rabbit must have loved the way you cared even was given a nice yellow treat! This was a delight to read and just find a sweet moment. Thanks ..................Kathy

[Tom]

A belated & most humble thank you Kathy!

Just checking in as I think this little cracker deserves to be resurrected and allowed out to breathe... I hope my clicking on the box attracts a little more attention.....

[Tom]

Thank you Neville, very thoughtful of you my friend!

[Neville]

If your pet rabbit doesn't have a name yet, might I suggest ' Daisy ' almost as pretty as dandelions. your poems are a delicious treat!

[Tom]

Thank you, a suggestion of great merit!

Sweet! Romance and humor combined. The ending is just adorable.

Thank you my friend 🐰

[Neville]

These words just took me back some, to a time when I would spend hours collecting dandelion leaves for both Baldric & Patience my beloved old Herman's Tortoises. A lovely nostalgic start to a cold Sunday morning, cheers Tom

[Tom]

Thank you Neville, though much maligned and considered weeds by many, dandelions are are very versatile little plant, packed with nutrients!

[Neville]

Aye them piss the beds make a darn good brew, or so I'm told......A smashing write as always Tom

[Gee]

[Tom]

Thank you Gee !

[Poetic Beauty]

I love the last two lines in this poem. It made me smile. Pet bunny rabbit was a cheerful twist.

[Tom]

Thank you Poetic Beauty, yes, all for the love of a little rabbit lol... and why not?

[Poetic Beauty]

Smiles indeed why not?!

[Moonie]

Very well written, with a strong message...
My favourite lines would be-
"majestic in vibrant yellow
Sure to make a lady smile, "

[Tom]

Thank you for you fine appraisal of my little dandelion poem!

[Echoes of Eros]

This has such a tenderness to it, and then just hits one in the face with a laugh! In a good way! And yes, I had rabbits before, and there was nothing that pleased their palates more than a tasty bowl of dandelions.

[Tom]

Thanks Eros, yea they do love them and they are most nutritious!
