Dandelion

It's strange learning lessons too late But pain lingers into the night It stays as a comfort to the alone I wait and don't fight it Gather it to me as the dandelion Like a child I blow and send each sorrow The wind surrounds each thought and carries And if they are watered and fertilized They will form my future and the Sun The blessed Sun will warm my broken heart The mending and stitching of my better half My better half who knows all of me I love you

I think dandelions can be nice, and this poem is very nice too. Love how you related it all to the Sun!
