Dandelion

-------Dandelion-------

There is 

a lot to learn 

in this moment

From those 

who some 

call weeds.

Like the settler

who names another

invader.

And 

the 

dandelion

Who

with the utmost 

humility

Quietly defies

the hubris

of the plowman,

Repairing 

with tap roots

the hardened ground

And sharing 

in abundance

their nectar,

their pollen 

and seeds

with the world.

Pay attention

to them,

Young Blood,

And how 

they not only 

survive

But thrive

through moments 

of change.
