Dandelion Walk

Wallflowers grow on dandelion walk,
Smoothing the air with blossom talk
Speak to me as I blow the time,
Speak to me dear dandelion.

Wallflowers dance in furtive breeze
To smooth the eyes and give us ease.
Don’t blow away dear dandelion,
I stoop to hear your music chime.

I count to 1 2 3 4 five,
With humid breath and we’re alive.
You travel wide to banish time,
Come fly with me dear dandelion
