Phase of a Dandelion

Dandelions can be seen Invading Lawns that are green They spoil a nice lawn One you've cultivated all along Potherbs some do believe As tasty as one can conceive A drink concocted this flower makes Without the use of any grapes A drink of pagan Gods, claims are made From this yellow flower wine is made They burst into lovely flowers Some think they have medicinal powers When dandelions begin to fade Offspring of white are displayed Blow upon a seeded flower Your wish may come true within the hour Off they go carried by the wind floating in the breeze until they descend New, the seeds then begin Regenerating a new dandelion again

This is 'rhyme' and it is wonderful. The flow, beat and rhythm delighted me as I read. Your knowledge impressed me and was charmingly, poetically delivered! Great job. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
