Poetry: Dandelions

by S-C Sterner

Created on: May 07, 2010

Dandelion child

stand tall

stand straight

in humble fortitude

be proud

you made it

against the odds

against the grain

no nurture

no support

only willpower brought you up

your strength of will

your strength of mind


you child of humble origin

you shine and beam

you thrive and prosper

don’t ever bow your head

whatever they say

be tough

be brave

your determination brought you here

all the way here

through cracks in the tarmac

through cracks in the ground

just keep on growing

little dandelion child.
