Dandelion

It's in the eye of the beholder......

Bright yellow sun kissed smile, 

some say a weed, 

I say beauty of petals golden. 

Born of a child's wish, 

spread throughout my spring garden.

Author's Note

I love flowers in all there forms.

Dandelions are Mother Nature's flowers, sown by her, not the hand of man. They have healing properties and were used for that in olden times. The leaves are used to stimulate the appetite and help digestion. Dandelion flower has antioxidant properties. Dandelion may also help improve the immune system. It's botanical name is Taraxacum. Lovely work, Dave. I enjoyed reading very much. Thank you for sharing...

Lion's tooth, the dandelion is a noble plant, unappreciated in modern times. Love "born of a child's wish".

Dandelion means Lion's tooth. (*Beautiful poem, Dave. I love how it reflects the child blowing the seeds and making a wish. And the way it spreads throughout the garden, you see it as beauty. What a lovely way to look at the world :)

I see dandelions as flowers....and those petals that blow away in the wind...where they land, wishes do along with them.

Visually beautiful. Wild flowers. I don’t call them weeds. Weeds is a word with such a negative feel. I like your brevity here.
