dandelion

sometimes we didn't realize in the common dandelion..
what beauty there is in a weed..if we see it..




dear common flower, that grow'st beside the way..
fringing the dusty road with harmless gold..
first pledge of blithesome May
which children pluck and full of pride, uphold..



how like a prodigal doth nature seem
when thou, for all thy gold so common art



thou teachest me to deem
more sacredly of every human heart
since each reflects in joy its scanty gleam of heaven
- byJames Russell Lowell
