dandelion dreams

 
saunter in day so I may see your smile
kiss my brow with a breeze  
tenderly usher me into your newness  
 
I rise to greet you inside my soul
with a gesture heavenwards
the secrets of the clouds whisper
welcome beautiful
 
I sigh then soar
 
the trees talk among themselves quietly
I wonder what memories they keep of me
the daisy beds sing merrily with the birds
the melody of the day imbues my heart with happiness
 
I am a melancholy child in sync
 
I string together dandelions with thoughts of forever
in deep reverie I listen to the wisdom of nature
she is a very old woman  
who has seen a great many things
keeping time with the eternal
my heart glows then skips a beat
 
a butterfly flitters by and I am reminded
what a difference one small thing makes
a small ripple in the pond of humanity
perhaps some cheerfulness
perchance an adventure
 
the day approves
