Dandelion Wine
By
Lisa A.Williams
Two girls-
In a grassland
Of
unwanted things-
such nuisances in
their
untamed growing
reaching for warmth,
eying the clouds
in the lazy entourage
of blue beckoning.
Waiting to find
a place
as they mix the rain
with wild yellow-
tasting
the bitterness
of their creation.
This is lovely...I really like the mood and emotion in each line.
ReplyDeletebeautiful in flow and imagery
ReplyDeletesuch a beautiful poem -and the detail of the title is fabulous! It reminds me of a song by XTC - but I can't remember which one... Anyhow: the writing of the place and time is so precise. Just the kind of poem I'd love to write and always love to read.
ReplyDeleteThis is interesting. You haven't included an explanation, and I may be way off base, but for me this poem depicts adolescence. Smiles.
