dandelion wishes

little lions

poking up through the sidewalk cracks

little lions

rambling along the sides of hills

little lions

puffy yellow stars shining like the sun

little lions

green leaves raised and spiked

as if you could ever hurt someone

little lions

folding back up;

what, july too hot for you? 

little lions

soft white fluff peeking out, impatient

little lions

all of a sudden the sky is filled

with seeds

little lion seeds

spinning in the wind, dancing,

and caught in their fluff:

wishes.
