dandelion seed
into the mists
i wander
my soul is thirsty
for the sun dappled beauty
of the forests
hanging heavy
with dew
the thick undergrowth of ferns
my bed of meditation
i lie there
as my thoughts float
to the fields of poppies
that grow in the valley
where the fawn are nourished
by delicate buds
all nature kisses my soul
as i drift
to the mountain peaks
where if you listen closely
wisdom is uttered
directly to the hearts
of those willing to hear
hummingbird lights
on an obliging flower
& her thirst is quenched
so it is with my being
in the great & ancient forests
i whisper my secrets
to these denziens of old
they bare witness
& with a stoic quiet
hold my confessions close
no mortal will ever know
what i tell the forest trees
& in the telling
i set my spirit free
as i strip myself
of all worldly confines
& share my wonderment
a dandelion seed of hope
to be carried away on a breeze
to be planted in the mind
of another poet
seeking beauty this day

Delicate, lovely writing, and after having read "Vile Delirium" I'm reminded of your versatility. This is perfect for a sultry Thursday afternoon. I think I caught that seed...

I love the mystery of this line, it's really sublime,
' no mortal will ever know
what i tell the forest trees
& in the telling
i set my spirit free '

This poem is really pretty...
I felt as if I was in the middle of spring breathing in green air with blooming flowers..
