The Seekers



She blew on a dandelion, and changed her world

The seeds danced on the breeze, bearers of wish and a prayer

Given freedom with her breath, they searched

Their idle time was over

  2. Hi there,

    I admit it; poetry scares me. But I liked this and enjoyed the elegant simplicity (no punctuation, very cool) of it very much. Not to mention the word choice. I read it out loud a couple of times!
