Dandelion Wishes

Folder: 
Dreams and Schemes

I stand alone in a dark field

Surrounded by nothing

but Dandelions

They flare around me

like a poodle skirt

on a young woman's body.

I spin myself around

Searching...

For someone else to share

this beauty with.

But for miles and miles stretches nothing

But dandelions.

I pluck one a make a wish

and another grows back

in its vacant place.

I wished for a never ending chocolate fountain

On another I wished for

A diamond bigger than my head.

I wished for all things imaginable.

Even the fountain of youth.

And excited as I was....

I couldn't forget one thing

I had left to wish for...

I wished I weren't alone.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Suffocating in loneliness lately.

Freakin dandelions. Once that

Freakin dandelions. Once that white poof blows, the seeds are planted everywhere and more nd more dandelions grow. ;)

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
