The Dandelions

by Danny P. Barbare


Bright yellow dandelions bloom in a green grassy field, with one large flower in focus and others softly blurred behind.

Of late I’m not

so shy, says the sun

I’m hardy

as the dandelions

in the yard.

Not even

the concrete driveway

can stop me.

And I can brave

the crowded

city all around me

it’s summertime

I’m happily yellow.
