Dandelion Wine



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.

  2. such 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.

  3. This is interesting. You haven't included an explanation, and I may be way off base, but for me this poem depicts adolescence. Smiles.
