How I Love The Dandelion

Okay, I know just what you're thinking That it is only a weed It too has grown through twists and turns It too started from a tiny seed. It is hearty and its struggles seem easy For it rises above all the rest When put beside and regular flower It surely will win any test. But look at it, my friend, for a bit The flowers look just like the sun Brilliant yellow to brighten the day It makes me smile ‘cause it is such fun. My son brought me the first one he saw Each spring and I put it in a vase I hope you think about it in a happy way For I wrote this poem just in case.
